Approximate isocontours and spatial summaries for sensor networks
We consider the problem of approximating a family of isocontours in a sensor field with a topologically-equivalent family of simple polygons. Our algorithm is simple and distribu...

3D Reconstruction of Human Faces from Occluding Contours
Abstract. In this paper we take a fresh look at the problem of extracting shape from contours of human faces. We focus on two key questions: how can we robustly fit a 3D face mode...
