Widely used SVD-based matrix factorization approaches to the recovery of 3D rigid structure from motion (SFM), require a set of feature points to be visible in a set of images. Wh...

Non-rigid structure from motion (NRSFM) is a difficult, underconstrained problem in computer vision. The standard approach in NRSFM constrains 3D shape deformation using a linear...

We present an information theoretic approach to define the problem of structure from motion (SfM) as a blind source separation one. Given that for almost all practical joint densi...

We address the problem of segmenting an image sequence into rigidly moving 3D objects. An elegant solution to this problem is the multibody factorization approach in which the mea...
A method for analytically calculating the forces between systems of rigid bodies in resting (non-colliding) contact is presented. The systems of bodies may either be in motion or ...

In this paper we consider the problem of segmenting multiple rigid motions using multi?frame point correspondence data. The main idea of the method is to group points according to...

Shape-From-Silhouette (SFS), also known as Visual Hull (VH) construction, is a popular 3D reconstruction method which estimates the shape of an object from multiple silhouette ima...
