In this paper we study interest point descriptors for image matching and 3D reconstruction. We examine the building blocks of descriptor algorithms and evaluate numerous combinati...
In this paper, we present a shape constrained Markov network for accurate face alignment. The global face shape is defined as a set of weighted shape samples which are integrated ...

A novel and general criterion for image similarity validation is introduced using the so-called a contrario decision framework. It is mathematically proved that it is possible to c...
This paper contributes a new boosting paradigm to achieve detection of events in video. Previous boosting paradigms in vision focus on single frame detection and do not scale to v...
