We introduce the N-buffer as a tool for multiresolution depth map representation. This neighborhood buffer encodes the value and position of local depth extrema at different scale...
Face annotation makes it easy to share and manage digital photos and videos. While state-of-the-art face recognition algorithms can achieve high accuracy to support automatic face...
We accelerate the finding of occluders in tree based acceleration structures, such as a packetized BVH and a single ray kd-tree, by deriving the ray termination surface area heur...
Object recognition has made great strides recently. However, the best methods, such as those based on kernelSVMs are highly computationally intensive. The problem of how to accele...
This paper1 describes a method for tracking regions in image sequences. Regions segmented from each frame by a motion segmentation technique are matched by using a relaxation proc...
