We consider the problem of capturing shape characteristics on specular (refractive and reflective) surfaces that are nearly flat. These surfaces are difficult to model using tradit...
Abstract. Robust tracking of objects in video is a key challenge in computer vision with applications in automated surveillance, video indexing, human-computer-interaction, gesture...

The use of local features in computer vision has shown to be promising. Local features have several advantages including invariance to image transformations, independence of the ba...
—Optical flow algorithms are difficult to apply to robotic vision applications in practice because of their extremely high computational and frame rate requirements. In most case...
