RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Master’s Research
ECCV 2012 Paper: Local Label Descriptor for Example based Semantic Image Labeling
http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~lizy/papers/eccv-seg.pdf
Use concatenation of label histograms to solve label patch misalignment issue
Approximate Label map as a sparse convex combination of exemplar descriptors in the training data
Incorporate Low level image over-segmentation to improve efficiency

NIPS 2012 Submission: Structured Label Propagation in an Ensemble of Directed Acyclic Graph
Propose a Semi-supervised structured learning based on energy minimization using an ensemble of directed acyclic graphs that consist of overlapping local cliques which propagate labels from training data to testing data
