In this paper, we present a new method for tracking objects with shadows. Traditional motion-based tracking schemes cannot usually distinguish the shadow from the object itself, a...
Looking around in our every day environment, many of the encountered objects are specular to some degree. Actively using this fact when reconstructing objects from image sequences...
We present a novel geometric model for robot mapping based on shape. Shape similarity measure and matching techniques originating from computer vision are specially redesigned for ...
In this paper, we propose an algorithm to estimate 2D shapes and positions of obstacles such as buildings using GPS and wireless communication history of mobile nodes. Our algorith...
In this paper, we present a modified snake model for the problem of general video object tracking. We introduce a new external force into the snake equation based on the predictiv...
