Abstract. Active Appearance Models (AAM) are compact representations of the shape and appearance of objects. Fitting AAMs to images is a difficult, non-linear optimization task. Tr...
We consider the problem of tracking a given set of point features over large sequences of image frames. A classic procedure for monitoring the tracking quality consists in requirin...
We investigate in this article the rigid registration of large sets of points, generally sampled from surfaces. We formulate this problem as a general Maximum-Likelihood (ML) estim...
Abstract. Natural scenes consist of a wide variety of stochastic patterns. While many patterns are represented well by statistical models in two dimensional regions as most image s...
We present a new method for the detection and estimation of multiple illuminants, using one image of any object with known geometry and Lambertian reflectance. Our method obviates ...
