In an effort to articulate models for the intuitive representation and manipulation of 2D and 3D forms, Blum (1967, 1973) invented the notion of a skeleton. His insight was to con...

Statistical approaches for building non-rigid deformable
models, such as the Active Appearance Model (AAM), have
enjoyed great popularity in recent years, but typically require

Model-based 3D tracker estimate the position, rotation, and joint angles of a given model from video data of one or multiple cameras. They often rely on image features that are tr...
We propose a novel representation for characterizing image differences using a deformable technique for obtaining pixel-wise correspondences. This representation, which is based o...
We pose the problem of 3D human tracking as one of inference in a graphical model. Unlike traditional kinematic tree representations, our model of the body is a collection of loos...
