Without a deformation model, monocular 3D shape recovery of deformable surfaces is severly under-constrained. Even when the image information is rich enough, prior knowledge of th...
The performance of part-based object detectors generally degrades for highly flexible objects. The limited topological structure of models and pre-specified part shapes are two ...
The paper presents a 2D or 3D shape deformation method which incorporates global and local stiffness controls. First, a geometric object is embedded into a regular lattice and then...
Pictorial Structures (PS) define a probabilistic model of 2D articulated objects in images. Typical PS models assume an object can be represented by a set of rigid parts connecte...
In this paper, we address the problem of identifying and localizing multiple instances of highly deformable objects in real-time video data. We present an approach which uses PCA-...
