DESCRIPTION:This talk overviews our recent work both in comput
 er vision and multimodal computing.\nObject class 
 recognition is one of the most fundamental problem
 s in computer vision and I will discuss several ap
 proaches we have been developing. One of these app
 roaches is based on a shape-based model for object
  class detection that enables explicit knowledge t
 ransfer between object classes. Another important 
 problem in computer vision is people detection and
  tracking. In our work we have aimed to integrate 
 detection and tracking into a common framework tha
 t has been recently extended to articulated pose e
 stimation.\nIn the second part of the talk I highl
 ight three approaches to enable activity and gestu
 re recognition in realistic scenarios using wearab
 le sensors: the first address the unsupervised dis
 covery of daily routines\; the second introduces a
  novel body-model based human activity recognition
  approach\; and the third discusses an approach fo
 r mobile gesture recognition.
