Strong lighting is common in natural scenes yet is often viewed as a nuisance for object pose estimation and tracking. In human shape and pose estimation, cast shadows can be conf...

The 3D shape of the human body is useful for applications in fitness, games and apparel. Accurate body scanners, however, are expensive, limiting the availability of 3D body mode...
Abstract. A model of human appearance is presented for efficient pose estimation from real-world images. In common with related approaches, a high-level model defines a space of co...

We present a real-time algorithm to estimate the 3D
pose of a previously unseen face from a single range im-

Much of the research on video-based human motion capture assumes the body shape is known a priori and is represented coarsely (e.g. using cylinders or superquadrics to model limbs...
