Talk 1: Factorized Graph Matching Talk 2: Generalized Time Warping for Multi-modal Alignment of Human Motion
Event Location: NSH 1305Abstract: Talk #1 Graph matching plays a central role in solving correspondence problems in computer vision. Graph matching problems that incorporate pair-wise constraints can be cast as a quadratic assignment problem (QAP). Unfortunately, QAP is NP-hard and many algorithms have been proposed to solve different relaxations. This paper presents factorized graph matching [...]
