In image retrieval, most existing approaches that incorporate local features produce high dimensional vectors, which lead to a high computational and data storage cost. Moreover, ...
Recovering the three-dimensional (3D) object shape lies as an unresolved and active research topic on the crosssection of computer vision, photogrammetry and bioinformatics. Altho...
This paper formalizes a novel, intrinsic geometric scale space (IGSS) of 3D surface shapes. The intrinsic geometry of a surface is diffused by means of the Ricci flow for the gener...
Feature-based methods have found increasing use in many applications such as object recognition, 3D reconstruction and mosaicing. In this paper, we focus on the problem of matchin...
We present an approach for simultaneous monocular 3D face pose and facial animation tracking. The pose and facial features are estimated from observed raw brightness shape-free 2D...
