In this paper, we focus on fine-grained recognition of vehicles mainly in traffic surveillance applications. We propose an approach that is orthogonal to recent advancements (automatic part discovery and bilinear pooling). addition, contrast other methods focused vehicles, do not limit ourselves a frontal/rear viewpoint, but allow the be seen from any viewpoint. Our based 3-D bounding boxes built around vehicles. The box can automatically constructed data. For scenarios where it possible use...

In this work, we propose a novel method for automatic camera calibration, mainly surveillance cameras. The calibration consists in observing objects on the ground plane of scene; our experiments, vehicles were used. However, any arbitrary rigid can be used instead, as verified by experiments with synthetic data. process uses convolutional neural network localisation landmarks observed scene and corresponding 3D positions localised - thus fine-grained classification detected image is done....

A significant hurdle within any counting task is the variance in a scale of objects to be counted. While size changes some extent can induced by perspective distortion, more severe differences easily occur, e.g. case images taken drone from different elevations above ground. The aim our work overcome this issue leveraging only lightweight dot annotations and minimum level training supervision.
