Discriminative approaches for human pose estimation model the functional mapping, or conditional distribution, between image features and 3D pose. Learning such multi-modal models ...
In this paper we propose novel algorithms for image restoration and parameter estimation with a Generalized Gaussian Markov Random Field prior utilizing variational distribution a...
