Shape indexing is a way of making rapid associations between features detected in an image and object models that could have produced them. When model databases are large, the use...
Skin detection is an important preliminary process in human motion analysis. It is commonly performed in three steps: transforming the pixel color to a non-RGB colorspace, droppin...

The detection and tracking of three-dimensional human body models has progressed rapidly but successful approaches typically rely on accurate foreground silhouettes obtained using...
In this paper, we present a new single-image camera response function (CRF) estimation method using geometry invariants (GI). We derive mathematical properties and geometric inter...
