Recovering Local Shape of a Mirror Surface from Reflection of a Regular Grid
Abstract. We present a new technique to recover the shape of an unknown smooth specular surface from a single image. A calibrated camera faces a specular surface reflecting a calib...

Separating Transparent Layers through Layer Information Exchange
In this paper we present an approach for separating two transparent layers in images and video sequences. Given two initial unknown physical mixtures, I1 and I2, of real scene laye...

Modeling and Synthesis of Facial Motion Driven by Speech
We introduce a novel approach to modeling the dynamics of human facial motion induced by the action of speech for the purpose of synthesis. We represent the trajectories of a numbe...

Image Similarity Using Mutual Information of Regions
Mutual information (MI) has emerged in recent years as an effective similarity measure for comparing images. One drawback of MI, however, is that it is calculated on a pixel by pix...

Adaptive Probabilistic Visual Tracking with Incremental Subspace Update
Visual tracking, in essence, deals with non-stationary data streams that change over time. While most existing algorithms are able to track objects well in controlled environments,...

Human Pose Estimation Using Learnt Probabilistic Region Similarities and Partial Configurations
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...

Unlevel-Sets: Geometry and Prior-Based Segmentation
We present a novel variational approach to top-down image segmentation, which accounts for significant projective transformations between a single prior image and the image to be s...

Tracking People with a Sparse Network of Bearing Sensors
Recent techniques for multi-camera tracking have relied on either overlap between the fields of view of the cameras or on a visible ground plane. We show that if information about ...

Unifying Approaches and Removing Unrealistic Assumptions in Shape from Shading: Mathematics Can Help
This article proposes a solution of the Lambertian Shape From Shading (SFS) problem by designing a new mathematical framework based on the notion of viscosity solutions. The power ...
