Statistical appearance models are valuable tools in medical image segmentation. Current methods elegantly incorporate global shape and appearance, but can not cope with local appe...
We present a novel algorithm aiming to estimate the 3D shape, the texture of a human face, along with the 3D pose and the light direction from a single photograph by recovering th...
This paper presents a novel approach to robust and flexible person tracking using an algorithm that combines two powerful stochastic modeling techniques: The first one is the tech...
A fundamental problem when computing statistical shape models is the determination of correspondences between the instances of the associated data set. Often, homologies between po...
