There has recently been significant interest in using repions based on abstractions of Blum's skeleton into a graph, for qualitative shape matching. The application of these ...
In this paper, we present a shape constrained Markov network for accurate face alignment. The global face shape is defined as a set of weighted shape samples which are integrated ...

We propose a method for applying genetic algorithms to create 3D terrain data sets. Existing procedural algorithms for generation of terrain have several shortcomings. The most po...

Parameter estimation is a key computational issue in all statistical image modeling techniques. In this paper, we explore a computationally efficient parameter estimation algorith...
We present a novel representation and rendering method for free-viewpoint video of human characters based on multiple input video streams. The basic idea is to approximate the art...
