Contour Context Selection for Object Detection: A Set-to-Set Contour Matching Approach
Abstract. We introduce a shape detection framework called Contour Context Selection for detecting objects in cluttered images using only one exemplar. Shape based detection is inva...

The Naked Truth: Estimating Body Shape Under Clothing
We propose a method to estimate the detailed 3D shape of a person from images of that person wearing clothing. The approach exploits a model of human body shapes that is learned fr...

Fast and Accurate Rotation Estimation on the 2-Sphere without Correspondences
Abstract. We present a refined method for rotation estimation of signals on the 2-Sphere. Our approach utilizes a fast correlation in the harmonic domain to estimate rotation angle...

Robust 3D Pose Estimation and Efficient 2D Region-Based Segmentation from a 3D Shape Prior
In this work, we present an approach to jointly segment a rigid object in a 2D image and estimate its 3D pose, using the knowledge of a 3D model. We naturally couple the two proces...

A Perceptual Comparison of Distance Measures for Color Constancy Algorithms
Abstract. Color constancy is the ability to measure image features independent of the color of the scene illuminant and is an important topic in color and computer vision. As many ...

Learning to Recognize Activities from the Wrong View Point
Appearance features are good at discriminating activities in a fixed view, but behave poorly when aspect is changed. We describe a method to build features that are highly stable u...

Shadows in Three-Source Photometric Stereo
Shadows are one of the most significant difficulties of the photometric stereo method. When four or more images are available, local surface orientation is overdetermined and the s...

ASN: Image Keypoint Detection from Adaptive Shape Neighborhood
Abstract. We describe an accurate keypoint detector that is stable under viewpoint change. In this paper, keypoints correspond to actual junctions in the image. The principle of AS...
