Abstract
One of the major challenges in computer vision is general recognition, the ability to infer useful properties of objects within sight. It’s a slippery problem whose solution depends on the details of a particular situation—what do I want to know, what kind of object, how similar to those I have seen before. I’ll present the work from my group over the past few years on how to organize and infer knowledge of objects, with a focus on generalizing to new types of objects, providing details, and learning models of parts. I will highlight some lessons learned and also point to problems uncovered.
