Scene and Object Recognition

Overview

	We are working on new techniques for use in object recognition. The problems we are interested in include generic object detection in cluttered environments, scene recognition, human activity, and shape.
	Details on "shape contexts", including sample code, results on digits, and some background. Details on using shape contexts to break Gimpy, a visual CAPTCHA
