Visual Hull (VH) construction from silhouette images is a popular method of shape estimation. The method, also known as Shape-From-Silhouette (SFS), is used in many applications s...
This paper addresses the shape-based segmentation problem using level sets. In particular, we propose a fast algorithm to solve the piece-wise constant Chan-Vese segmentation mode...
We consider the problem of image segmentation using active contours through the minimization of an energy criterion involving both region and boundary functionals. These functiona...
Shape information is utilized by numerous applications in computer vision, scientific visualization and computer graphics. This paper presents a novel algorithm for exploring and ...
Text superimposed on the video frames provides supplemental but important information for video indexing and retrieval. Many efforts have been made for videotext detection and rec...
