We present a new method for real-time rendering of objects with complex isotropic BRDFs under distant natural illumination, as specified by an environment map. Our approach is bas...
In this paper an approach is described to estimate 3D pose using a part based stochastic method. A proposed representation of the human body is explored defined over joints that e...
Attribute-based query offers an intuitive way of image retrieval, in which users can describe the intended search targets with understandable attributes. In this paper, we develop...

Data synopsis is a lossy compressed representation of data stored into databases that helps the query optimizer to speed up the query process, e.g. time to retrieve the data from ...
3D models have become an essential element of multimedia applications because they provide visual effects that permit interactive exploration. As in other media types, efficient c...
