Most algorithms for real-time tracking of deformable shapes provide sub-optimal solutions for a suitable energy minimization task: The search space is typically considered too lar...
Abstract. Most of the algorithms dealing with image based 3-D reconstruction involve the evolution of a surface based on a minimization criterion. The mesh parametrization, while a...
Recovering the pose of a person from single images is a challenging problem. This paper discusses a bottom-up approach that uses local image features to estimate human upper body p...
Automatic detection of dynamic events in video sequences has a variety of applications including visual surveillance and monitoring, video highlight extraction, intelligent transp...
Visual tracking using active contours is usually accomplished in a static framework. The active contour tracks the object of interest in a given frame of an image sequence, and th...
