This paper proposes a novel image modeling scheme for object detection and localization. Object appearance is modeled by the joint distribution of k-tuple salient point feature ve...

We present an adaptive framework for condensation algorithms in the context of human-face tracking. We attack the face tracking problem by making factored sampling more efficient a...

By mapping a set of input images to points in a lowdimensional manifold or subspace, it is possible to efficiently account for a small number of degrees of freedom. For example, i...
Linear and multi-linear models of object shape/appearance (PCA, 3DMM, AAM/ASM, multilinear tensors) have been very popular in computer vision. In this paper, we analyze the validi...
