The human figure exhibits complex and rich dynamic behavior that is both nonlinear and time-varying. However, most work on tracking and analysis of figure motion has employed eith...
Isometric surfaces share the same geometric structure also known as the `first fundamental form'. For example, all possible bending of a given surface, that include all lengt...

This paper presents a novel processing scheme for the automatic computation of a medial shape model which is representative for an object population with shape variability. The se...
When performing subspace modelling of data using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) it may be desirable to constrain certain directions to be more meaningful in the context of the...
