Many interactive image segmentation approaches use an objective function which includes appearance models as an unknown variable. Since the resulting optimization problem is NP-har...
Many natural images contain reflections and transparency, i.e., they contain mixtures of reflected and transmitted light. When viewed from a moving camera, these appear as the sup...
Linear and affine subspaces are commonly used to describe appearance of objects under different lighting, viewpoint, articulation, and identity. A natural problem arising from the...
We present a theoretical analysis for characterizing the shadows cast by a point light source given its relative position to the camera. In particular, we analyze the epipolar geo...

Graph cut is a popular technique for interactive image segmentation. However, it has certain shortcomings. In particular, graph cut has problems with segmenting thin elongated obj...
