Boundary descriptors may be used effectively in various image based recognition problems. However, when images are acquired in uncontrolled conditions, changes in pose and illumin...
This paper presents a novel object recognition approach based on range images. Due to its insensitivity to illumination, range data is well suited for reliable silhouette extracti...
In this work a new robust color and contour based object detection method in images with varying shadows is presented. The method relies on a physics-based contour detector that em...

In this paper, we present an algorithm to combine edge information from stereo-derived depth maps with edges from the original intensity/color image to improve the contour detecti...
In this work we compute the similarity of 3D faces using a set of eight contour curves. These contours were selected and matched using our 3D face matching framework. In previous ...
