Many computer vision applications, such as scene analysis and medical image interpretation, are ill-suited for traditional classification where each image can only be associated w...
We propose a framework to learn statistical shape models for faces as piecewise linear models. Specifically, our methodology builds upon primitive active shape models(ASM) to hand...
In this paper, we propose a novel appearance-based representation, called Structured Ordinal Feature (SOF). SOF is a binary string encoded by combining eight ordinal blocks in a ci...
