Subhransu Maji

I am a third year PhD student in Computer Science at UC Berkeley advised by Jitendra Malik. My primary interest is in computer vision with focus on efficient algorithms for object recognition. I have also worked in various machine learning projects including ones in natural language processing and distributed compressed sensing. Before coming here I did my bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. Recently I was awarded the Google graduate fellowship, which funds my grad school expenses for the next two years. Thanks Google!

Max-Margin Additive Classifiers for Detection [pdf] [PPT] [Code]
Subhransu Maji and Alexander C. Berg
ICCV 2009, Kyoto, Japan (ORAL)

PASCAL VOC 2009
We submitted a people detector based on poselets and hough transform based voting to the pascal challenge. We won on the people category, but our results are not directly comparable as we use require additional annotations to train our detectors. For more details check out the PASCAL VOC 2009 workshop page and the POSELETS page of my colleague Lubomir Bourdev.
