In many cases, visual tracking is based on detecting, describing, and then matching local features. A variety of algorithms for these steps have been proposed and used in tracking...
Abstract. We investigate the suitability of different local feature detectors for the task of automatic image orientation under different scene texturings. Building on an existin...
While approaches based on local features play a more and more important role for 3D shape retrieval, the problems of feature selection and similarity measurement between sets of l...
In this paper we propose a novel appearance descriptor for 3D human pose estimation from monocular images using a learning-based technique. Our image-descriptor is based on the int...
Abstract— This paper focuses on methods that enhance performance of a model based 3D object tracking system. Three statistical methods and an improved edge detector are discussed...
