To enhance the dictionary's discriminative power, the reconstruction error, classification error and inhomogeneous representation error are integrated into the objective function. The proposed approach learns a single structured dictionary and a linear classifier jointly. The learned dictionary encourages the samples from the same class to have similar sparse codes, and the samples from different classes to have dissimilar sparse codes. The solution to the objective function is achieved by employing a feature-sign search algorithm and Lagrange dual method. Experimental results on three public databases demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms several recently proposed dictionary learning techniques for classification.展开更多

With the increasing popularity of affordable depth sensors, range data is widely used in visual tracking for its ability to provide robustness to varying illumination and occlusions. In this paper, a novel RGBD and sparse learning based tracker is proposed. The range data is integrated into the sparse learning framework in three respects. First, an extra depth view is added to the color image based visual features as an independent view for robust appearance modeling. Then, a special occlusion template set is designed to replenish the existing dictionary for handling various occlusion conditions. Finally, a depth-based occlusion detection method is proposed to efficiently determine an accurate time for the template update. Extensive experiments on both KITTI and Princeton data sets demonstrate that the proposed tracker outperforms the state-of-the-art tracking algorithms, including both sparse learning and RGBD based methods.展开更多
