Abstract. We focused this work on handling variation in facial appearance caused by 3D head pose. A pose normalization approach based on fitting active appearance models (AAM) on ...
The problem of recognizing classes of objects as opposed to special instances requires methods of comparing images that capture the variation within the class while they discrimina...
Statistical shape-and-texture appearance models employ image metamorphosis to form a rich, compact representation of object appearance. They achieve their efficiency by decomposin...
We propose a new deformable shape model Active Shape Structural Model (ASSM) for recognition and reconstruction. The main features of ASSM are: (1) It describes variations of shape...
This paper presents a new deformable modeling strategy aimed at integrating shape and appearance in a unified space. If we think traditional deformable models as "active cont...
