This paper presents a method of image-based 3D modeling for intricately-shaped objects, such as a fur, tree leaves and human hair. We formulate the imaging process of these small g...
Abstract. A key problem in designing artificial neural networks for visual object recognition tasks is the proper choice of the network architecture. Evolutionary optimization met...

A new system for personal identification based on iris patterns is presented in this paper. It is composed of iris image acquisition, image preprocessing, feature extraction and c...
Dynamic programming on a scanline is one of the oldest and still popular methods for stereo correspondence. While efficient, its performance is far from the state of the art becau...
We describe a simple and robust method for surface mesostructure acquisition. Our method builds on the observation that specular reflection is a reliable visual cue for surface me...
