The visual hull is widely used to produce three dimensional models from multiple views, due to the reliability of the resulting surface. This paper presents a novel method for eff...
This article describes a multiple feature data fusion applied to an auxiliary particle filter for markerless tracking of 3D two-arm gestures by using a single camera mounted on a ...
Image categorization involves the well known difficulties with different visual appearances of a single object, but introduces also the problem of within-category variation. This ...
An often overlooked problem in matching lies in selecting an appropriate step size. The selection of the step size for real-time applications is critical both from the point of vi...

Correspondence algorithms typically struggle with shapes that display part-based variation. We present a probabilistic approach that matches shapes using independent part transfor...
This paper presents a novel method for the removal of unwanted image intensity due to occluding objects far from the plane of focus. Such occlusions may arise in scenes with large...

Geometric methods are very intuitive and provide a theoretically solid viewpoint to many optimization problems. SVM is a typical optimization task that has attracted a lot of atte...

Shape warping is a key problem in statistical shape analysis. This paper proposes a framework for geometric shape warping based on both shape distances and landmarks. Our method i...

A directional spatial relationship to a reference object (e.g., "east of the post office") can be represented by a spatial template. The template partitions the space in...
