We extend the constellation model to include heterogeneous parts which may represent either the appearance or the geometry of a region of the object. The parts and their spatial co...
Abstract. Fitting parameterized 3D shape and general reflectance models to 2D image data is challenging due to the high dimensionality of the problem. The proposed method combines ...
This paper presents an efficient compound image compression approach based on H.264/AVC intra coding. The text blocks are distinguished from the picture blocks and compressed with...
We exploit recent advances in the physical design of fast optical systems which enable active imaging with "ballistic" light. In this modality, fast bursts of optical en...
The ability to automatically detect visually interesting regions in images has practical applications in the design of active machine vision systems. Analysis of the statistics of...
