Object mining using a matching graph on very large image collections by Philbin, J, Zisserman, A

“…Often, what is required is that images taken in the same place, of the same thing, or of the same person be conceptually grouped together. This work focuses on grouping images containing the same object, despite significant changes in scale, viewpoint and partial occlusions, in very large (1M+) image collections automatically gathered from Flicker. …”

3D object recognition using invariance by Zisserman, A, Forsyth, D, Mundy, J, Rothwell, C, Liu, J, Pillow, N

“…These invariant measurements can be used to index a library of object models for recognition and provide a principled basis for the other stages of the recognition process such as feature grouping and hypothesis verification. Object models can be acquired directly from images, allowing efficient construction of model libraries without manual intervention.…”
