- 报告摘要：We propose a vision-based highway border detection algorithm using structured Hough voting. Our approach takes advantage of the geometric relationship between highway road borders and highway lane markings. It uses a strategy where a number of trained road border and lane marking detectors are triggered, followed by Hough voting to generate corresponding detection of the border and lane marking. Since the initially triggered detectors usually result in large number of positives, conventional frame-wise Hough voting is not able to always generate robust border and lane marking results. Therefore, we formulate this problem as a joint detection-and-tracking problem under the structured Hough voting model, where tracking refers to exploiting inter-frame structural information to stabilize the detection results. Both qualitative and quantitative evaluations show the superiority of the proposed structured Hough voting model over a number of baseline methods.

- 报告摘要：In this talk, I will introduce a comprehensive framework for a joint registration and analysis of functional data. The term functional data is used here very generally as it encompasses a variety of situations including registration of real-valued functions, Euclidean curves, and trajectories on nonlinear manifolds. This framework uses the Fisher-Rao Riemannian metric to derive a proper distance on the quotient space of functions modulo the time-warping group. A convenient square-root velocity function (SRVF) representation transforms the Fisher-Rao metric into the standard L2 metric, simplifying the computations. This distance is then used to define a Karcher mean template and warp the individual functions to align them with the Karcher mean template. The advantages of this framework are demonstrated using both simulated and real data from different application domains.
