—We propose a probabilistic formulation of joint silhouette extraction and 3D reconstruction given a series of calibrated 2D images. Instead of segmenting each image separately i...
In this paper we rst describe how we have constructed a 3D deformable Point Distribution Model of the human hand, capturing training data semi-automatically from volume images via...
The emergence of multicore processors has increased the need for simple parallel programming models usable by nonexperts. The ability to specify subparts of a bigger data structur...
Conventional video summarization methods focus predominantly on summarizing videos along the time axis, such as building a movie trailer. The resulting video trailer tends to reta...
Searching for images of people is an essential task for image and video search engines. However, current search engines have limited capabilities for this task since they rely on ...
