Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, we propose the methods for constructing and learning higher order energy for various problems on computer vision. (1) For high dimensional images, such as 3D CT volumes or spatio-temporal images, we constructed the energy on the superpixels or supervoxels. (2) For the camera image projected on the curved surface, energy for the extracted unstructured line segment set was constructed.
