In this work, we approach the classic Mumford-Shah problem from a curve evolution perspective. In particular, we let a given family of curves define the boundaries between regions...
We describe some techniques that can be used to represent and detect deformable shapes in images. The main difficulty with deformable template models is the very large or infinite...
This paper addresses the problem of shadow extraction from a single image of a complex natural scene. No simplifying assumption on the camera and the light source other than the L...
Given video footage of a person's face, we present new techniques to automatically recover the face position and the facial expression from each frame in the video sequence. ...

Since it is hard to handcraft the prior knowledge in a shape detection framework, machine learning methods are preferred to exploit the expert annotation of the target shape in a d...
