Active appearance models (AAMs) provide a framework for modeling the joint shape and texture of an image. An AAM is a compact representation of both factors in a conditionally lin...
This paper presents a probabilistic part-based approach for texture and object recognition. Textures are represented using a part dictionary found by quantizing the appearance of ...
The human vision system can interpret a single 2D line drawing as a 3D object without much difficulty even if the hidden lines of the object are invisible. Several reconstruction ...
Classic methods for Bayesian inference effectively constrain search to lie within regions of significant probability of the temporal prior. This is efficient with an accurate dyna...

This paper develops new theory for the optimal placement of photometric stereo lighting in the presence of camera noise. We show that for three lights, any triplet of orthogonal l...
