We extend the standard solution to comic rendering with a comic-style specular component. To minimise the computational overhead associated with this extension, we introduce two o...
This paper proposes a new Bayesian framework for solving the matting problem, i.e. extracting a foreground element from a background image by estimating an opacity for each pixel ...

As an extension to classical structured lighting techniques, the use of bi-dimensional pseudo-random color codes is explored to perform range sensing with variable density from a ...
In this article we present a novel fully automatic character segmentation for camera-based images. This is a top-down approach inspired by the human visual system: the high level ...
A nonparametric estimator of density gradient, the mean shift, is employed in the joint, spatial-range (value) domain of gray level and color images for discontinuity preserving l...
