Multi-view hair capture using orientation fields
Reconstructing realistic 3D hair geometry is challenging due to omnipresent occlusions, complex discontinuities and specular appearance. To address these challenges, we propose a ...

Multifunctional Whisker Arrays for Distance Detection, Terrain Mapping, and Object Feature Extraction
: Several species of animals use whiskers to accurately navigate and explore objects in the absence of vision. We have developed inexpensive arrays of artificial whiskers based on ...

Robust non-rigid registration of 2D and 3D graphs
We present a new approach to matching graphs embedded in R2 or R3 . Unlike earlier methods, our approach does not rely on the similarity of local appearance features, does not req...

A quantitative method for comparing trajectories of mobile robots using point distribution models
— In the field of mobile robotics, trajectory details are seldom taken into account to qualify robot performance. Most metrics rely mainly on global results such as the total ti...

A Generalized EM Approach for 3D Model Based Face Recognition under Occlusions
This paper describes an algorithm for pose and illumination invariant face recognition from a single image under occlusions. The method iteratively estimates the parameters of a 3...
