Human faces manifest distinct structures and characteristics when observed in different scales. Traditional face recognition techniques mainly rely on low-resolution face images, ...
We investigate to what extent `bag of visual words' models can be used to distinguish categories which have significant visual similarity. To this end we develop and optimize...
Surface representation is needed for almost all modeling and visualization applications, but unfortunately, 3D data from a passive vision system are often insufficient for a tradi...
We prove that the set of all Lambertian reflectance functions (the mapping from surface normals to intensities) obtained with arbitrary distant light sources lies close to a 9D lin...
Abstract. Establishing correspondence between features of a set of images has been a long-standing issue amongst the computer vision community. We propose a method that solves the ...
