An Adaptive Appearance Model Approach for Model-based Articulated Object Tracking
The detection and tracking of three-dimensional human body models has progressed rapidly but successful approaches typically rely on accurate foreground silhouettes obtained using...

Edge Suppression by Gradient Field Transformation Using Cross-Projection Tensors
We propose a new technique for edge-suppressing operations on images. We introduce cross projection tensors to achieve affine transformations of gradient fields. We use these tens...

Automatic Cast Listing in Feature-Length Films with Anisotropic Manifold Space
Our goal is to automatically determine the cast of a feature-length film. This is challenging because the cast size is not known, with appearance changes of faces caused by extrin...

The Panum Proxy Algorithm for Dense Stereo Matching over a Volume of Interest
Stereo matching algorithms conventionally match over a range of disparities sufficient to encompass all visible 3D scene points. Human vision however does not do this. It works ov...

Robust Fragments-based Tracking using the Integral Histogram
We present a novel algorithm (which we call "FragTrack") for tracking an object in a video sequence. The template object is represented by multiple image fragments or pa...

CSIFT: A SIFT Descriptor with Color Invariant Characteristics
SIFT has been proven to be the most robust local invariant feature descriptor. SIFT is designed mainly for gray images. However, color provides valuable information in object desc...

Robust People Tracking with Global Trajectory Optimization
Given three or four synchronized videos taken at eye level and from different angles, we show that we can effectively use dynamic programming to accurately follow up to six indivi...
