Animating 3D faces to achieve compelling realism is a challenging task in the entertainment industry. Previously proposed face transfer approaches generally require a high-quality...
In this article we present the integration of 3-D shape knowledge into a variational model for level set based image segmentation and contour based 3-D pose tracking. Given the sur...
Surface gradients are useful to surface reconstruction in single view modeling, shape-from-shading, and photometric stereo. Previous algorithms minimize a complex, nonlinear energ...
The ICP (Iterative Closest Point) algorithm is the de facto standard for geometric alignment of threedimensional models when an initial relative pose estimate is available. The ba...
—Several techniques based on the three–dimensional (3-D) discrete cosine transform (DCT) have been proposed for volumetric data coding. These techniques fail to provide lossles...
