The problem of recovering the shape of objects from three-dimensional data is important to many areas of computer graphics and vision. We present here a method for the recovery of...
A set of images of a Lambertian surface under varying lighting directions defines its shape up to a three-parameter Generalized Bas-Relief (GBR) ambiguity. In this paper, we exami...

Detecting objects, estimating their pose and recovering 3D shape information is a critical problem in many vision and robotics applications. This paper addresses the above needs by...
To realize context aware applications for smart home environments, it is necessary to recognize function or usage of objects as well as categories of them. On conventional researc...
The geometric skeleton is derived from a static object using an implicit `directions' method; an IK skeleton is derived from and used to manipulate the geometric skeleton. Th...
