Face alignment seeks to deform a face model to match it with the features of the image of a face by optimizing an appropriate cost function. We propose a new face model that is al...
We introduce a new approach to GA (Genetic Algorithms) based problem solving. Earlier GAs did not contain local search (i.e. hill climbing) mechanisms, which led to optimization d...

This paper adds a number of novel concepts into global s/t cut methods improving their efficiency and making them relevant for a wider class of applications in vision where algor...
Optimization with graph cuts became very popular in recent years. Progress in problems such as stereo correspondence, image segmentation, etc., can be attributed, in part, to the ...
Manually labeled landmark sets are often required as in-
puts for landmark-based image registration. Identifying an
optimal subset of landmarks from a training dataset may be
us...
