We present an object class detection approach which fully integrates the complementary strengths offered by shape matchers. Like an object detector, it can learn class models dire...
This paper proposes a method for detecting instances of shape classes that exhibit variable structure. The term "variable structure" is used to characterize shape classes...

Recognizing classes of objects from their shape is an unsolved problem in machine vision that entails the ability of a computer system to represent and generalize complex geometric...

Achieving high accuracy in the presence of expression variation remains one of the most challenging aspects of 3D face recognition. In this paper, we propose a novel recognition a...
We describe some techniques that can be used to represent and detect deformable shapes in images. The main difficulty with deformable template models is the very large or infinite...
