A positive combinatorial formula for symplectic Kostka-Foulkes polynomials I: Rows

Thomas Gerber

We prove a conjecture of Lecouvey, which proposes a closed, positive combinatorial formula for symplectic Kostka-Foulkes polynomials, in the case of rows of arbitrary weight. To show this, we construct a new algorithm for computing cocyclage in terms of wh ...

What Face and Body Shapes Can Tell Us About Height

Pascal Fua, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel

Recovering a person's height from a single image is important for virtual garment fitting, autonomous driving and surveillance. However, it is also very challenging without absolute scale information. Here, we examine the rarely addressed case, where camer ...

Learning Monocular 3D Human Pose Estimation from Multi-view Images

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Frédéric Meyer, Isinsu Katircioglu, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Victor Constantin

Accurate 3D human pose estimation from single images is possible with sophisticated deep-net architectures that have been trained on very large datasets. However, this still leaves open the problem of capturing motions for which no such database exists. Ma ...

Non-Discriminatory Machine Learning through Convex Fairness Criteria

Boi Faltings, Naman Goel, Mohammad Yaghini

Biased decision making by machine learning systems is increasingly recognized as an important issue. Recently, techniques have been proposed to learn non-discriminatory classifiers by enforcing constraints in the training phase. Such constraints are either ...
