Markov Random Topic Fields
Most approaches to topic modeling assume an independence between documents that is frequently violated. We present an topic model that makes use of one or more user-specified grap...

Model-based Shape Recovery From Single Images Of General And Unknown Lighting
We present a new statistical shape-from-shading framework for images of unknown illumination. The object (e.g., face) to be reconstructed is described by a parametric model. To de...

A Spatio-Temporal Modeling Method for Shape Representation
The spherical harmonic (SPHARM) description is a powerful surface modeling technique that can model arbitrarily shaped but simply connected three dimensional (3D) objects. Because...

Rapid and Accurate Contact Determination between Spline Models using ShellTrees
In this paper, we present an e cient algorithm for contact determination between spline models. We make use of a new hierarchy, called ShellTree, that comprises of spherical shell...
