In this paper, we study how estimates of ego-motion based on feature tracking (visual odometry) can be improved using a rough (low accuracy) map of where the observer has been. We...
Detecting nonrigid surfaces is an interesting research problem for computer vision and image analysis. One important challenge of nonrigid surface detection is how to register a n...
Recognizing and localizing specular (or mirror-like) surfaces from a single image is a great challenge to computer vision. Unlike other materials, the appearance of a specular sur...
Bad weather, such as fog and haze, can significantly degrade the visibility of a scene. Optically, this is due to the substantial presence of particles in the atmosphere that abso...
As the main observed illuminant outdoors, the sky is a rich source of information about the scene. However, it is yet to be fully explored in computer vision because its appearance...
