LOOPS: Localizing Object Outlines using Probabilistic Shape
Geremy Heitz · Gal Elidan · Benjamin D Packer · Daphne Koller
Discriminative tasks, including object categorization and detection, are central components of high-level computer vision. Sometimes, however, we are interested in more refined aspects of the object in an image, such as pose or particular regions. In this paper we develop a method (LOOPS) for learning a shape and image feature model that can be trained on a particular object class, and used to outline instances of the class in novel images. Furthermore, while the training data consists of uncorresponded outlines, the resulting LOOPS model contains a set of landmark points that appear consistently across instances, and can be accurately localized in an image. The resulting localization can then be used to address a range of tasks, including descriptive classification, search, and clustering.
