Integrating street view imagery and taxi trajectory for identifying urban function of street space
Street space is a crucial component of public space, serving as a site for a variety of human activities. However, prior studies have primarily focused on the traffic function of street space, neglecting other functional types, such as residential and ...

Usage of street-level imagery for city-wide graffiti mapping
Graffiti is a common phenomenon in urban scenarios. Differently from urban art, graffiti tagging is a vandalism act and many local governments are putting great effort to combat it. The graffiti map of a region can be a very useful resource because it may allow one to potentially combat vandalism in locations with high level of graffiti and also to ...

Multi-digit Number Recognition from Street View Imagery using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
Recognizing arbitrary multi-character text in unconstrained natural photographs is a hard problem. In this paper, we address an equally hard sub-problem in this domain viz. recognizing arbitrary multi-digit numbers from Street View imagery.
