A Symmetry-Based Generative Model for Shape
We propose a novel generative language for shape that is based on the shock graph: given a shock graph topology, we explore constraints on the geometry and dynamics of the shock g...

Depth Information by Stage Classification
Recently, methods for estimating 3D scene geometry or absolute scene depth information from 2D image content have been proposed. However, general applicability of these methods in...

Feature Preserving Image Smoothing Using a Continuous Mixture of Tensors
Many computer vision and image processing tasks require the preservation of local discontinuities, terminations and bifurcations. Denoising with feature preservation is a challeng...

Embedded Profile Hidden Markov Models for Shape Analysis
An ideal shape model should be both invariant to global transformations and robust to local distortions. In this paper we present a new shape modeling framework that achieves both...

pLSA for Sparse Arrays With Tsallis Pseudo-Additive Divergence: Noise Robustness and Algorithm
We introduce the Tsallis divergence error measure in the context of pLSA matrix and tensor decompositions showing much improved performance in the presence of noise. The focus of ...
