Detecting and segmenting free-form objects from cluttered backgrounds is a challenging problem in computer vision. Signature detection in document images is one classic example an...

We propose a novel framework for contour based object
detection and recognition, which we formulate as a joint
contour fragment grouping and labeling problem. For a
given set of...

A new boundary detection approach for shape modeling is presented. It detects the global minimum of an active contour model's energy between two end points. Initialization is ...
We address the problem of estimating human pose in a single image using a part based approach. Pose accuracy is directly affected by the accuracy of the part detectors but more acc...
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...
