Space-Time Interest Points (STIP)

Computes locations and descriptors for space-time interest points in video. The detector is based on the extension of Harris operator to space-time as described in "On Space-Time Interest Points", I.Laptev, IJCV 2005. The code does not implement scale selection, instead interest points are detected at multiple spatial and temporal scales. The implemented descriptors HOG (Histograms of Oriented Gradients) and HOF (Histograms of Optical Flow) are computed for 3D video patches in the neighbourhood of detected STIPs. This detector and descriptors have been successfully used for action recognition in the paper "Learning Realistic Human Actions from Movies", Ivan Laptev, Marcin Marszalek, Cordelia Schmid and Benjamin Rozenfeld; in Proc. CVPR'08.

Sparse Modeling Software (SPAMS)

SPAMS (SPArse Modeling Software) is an optimization toolbox composed of a set of binaries implementing algorithms to address various machine learning and signal processing problems involving a large number of small/medium size sparse decompositions.

PMVS

Our multi-view stereopsis PMVS software was developed in collaboration with Y. Furukawa at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (Furukawa and Ponce, 2007) and is publicly available for academics. Licensing negociations with several companies are under way.

Resampling Penalization for histogram selection in regression software

Resampling Penalization is a family of model selection procedure by penalization that can use any exchangeable weighted bootstrap resampling scheme to compute a penalty. It is properly defined in the general framework and extensively studied for histogram selection in regression (see journal paper). This software is a Matlab package for performing Resampling Penalization for several examples of weights in the histogram selection case. The Resampling Penalization package is provided free for non-commercial use under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

Non-uniform deblurring for shaken images

A Matlab package to remove non-uniform blur due to camera shake from a single image, as described in (Whyte et al., 2010).
