Active contours, or snakes, are computer-generated curves that move within images to find object boundaries. Its 3D version is often known as deformable models or active surfaces ...
We consider learning models for object recognition from examples. Our method is motivated by systems that use the Hausdorff distance as a shape comparison measure. Typically an ob...
In this paper, we propose a new approach for face shape recovery from a single image. A single near infrared (NIR) image is used as the input, and a mapping from the NIR tensor sp...
This paper addresses view-invariant object detection and pose estimation from a single image. While recent work focuses on object-centered representations of point-based object fe...
We present an object recognition system that locates an object, identifies its parts, and segments out its contours. A key distinction of our approach is that we use long, salien...
