Modulated phase-shifting for 3D scanning
We present a new 3D scanning method using modulated phase-shifting. Optical scanning of complex objects or scenes with significant global light transport, such as subsurface scatt...

Modeling complex luminance variations for target tracking
Lambert's model is widely used in low level computer vision algorithms such as matching, tracking or optical flow computation for example. However, it is well known that thes...

Face shape recovery from a single image using CCA mapping between tensor spaces
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...

Towards unsupervised whole-object segmentation: Combining automated matting with boundary detection
We propose a novel step toward the unsupervised segmentation of whole objects by combining "hints" of partial scene segmentation offered by multiple soft, binary mattes....

Relaxed matching kernels for robust image comparison
The popular bag-of-features representation for object recognition collects signatures of local image patches and discards spatial information. Some have recently attempted to at l...

Taylor expansion based classifier adaptation: Application to person detection
Because of the large variation across different environments, a generic classifier trained on extensive data-sets may perform sub-optimally in a particular test environment. In th...

Re-thinking non-rigid structure from motion
We present a novel approach to non-rigid structure from motion (NRSFM) from an orthographic video sequence, based on a new interpretation of the problem. Existing approaches assum...
