STICS – Search and Analysis with Strings, Things, and Cats
Understanding the meaning of a word in its current context is one of the big challenges when searching for information. STICS is a new kind of…
Computational Fabrication
3D printing gives new opportunities in object replication. We built a computational model with which we will compare perceived properties of different…
From Routing to Pricing and Learning: Why Are They Hard to Compute?
Computational aspects of routing and pricing problems share more similarities than one would imagine. Theoreticians as well as practitioners can…
Structural Variation in Genoms
Comparing genomes of parents and children separates inherited genetic variants from new mutations. The rate of novo mutations is an important…
Advanced Video Processing
New algorithms facilitate complex video processing such as automatic dynamic background inpainting. New machine learning algorithms make possible the…
Describing Videos with Natural Language
With the work of Anna and Markus Rohrbach the automatic generation of subtitles or the automatic movie description for the blind becomes a realistic…
Markerless Reconstruction of Static and Dynamic Scenes
The 3D reconstruction of detailed models of persons in general apparel is, until now, possible in indoor sudios with controlled environment only. With…
Ten Years of Pedestrian Detection, What Have we Learned?
Instead of using a large variety of classifier types, it is possible to obtain best results in shortest time by precisely applying the sliding windows…
3D Object Detection
Using a new design model (3D object class detector) not only the efficient detection of objects and their 2D position in a picture is possible, but…
