Accurate rigid and non-rigid tracking of faces is a challenging task in computer vision. Recently, appearance-based 3D face tracking methods have been proposed. These methods can ...
We describe a technique for extracting vertices from range images of cluttered box-like objects. Edge detection is performed and an edge map is acquired. Extraction of vertices is ...
Abstract This paper presents a method for detecting a textured deformed surface in an image. It uses (wide-baseline) point matches between a template and the input image. The main ...
Facial caricatures exaggerate key features to emphasize unique structural and personality traits. It is quite a challenge to retain the identity of the original person despite the ...
This paper introduces a new texture analysis scheme, which is invariant to local geometric and radiometric changes. The proposed methodology relies on the topographic map of images...
