Accurate rigid and non-rigid tracking of faces is a challenging task in computer vision. Recently, appearance-based 3D face tracking methods have been proposed. These methods can ...
We introduce a general model of refinement. This is defined in terms of what contexts an entity can appear in, and what observations can be made of it in those contexts. We show e...
Thin plate spline (TPS) transformations have been applied to non-rigid shape matching with impressive results. However, existing methods often use a sparse set of point correspond...
Generating free-viewpoint video in outdoor sports environments is currently an unsolved problem due to difficulties in obtaining accurate background segmentation and camera calib...
