We present a method for solving the global illumination problem for synthetic diffuse objects. The approach generates realistic shading for applications where a synthetic object i...
Image understanding involves analyzing many different aspects of the scene. In this paper, we are concerned with how these tasks can be combined in a way that improves the perform...
Automatic surveillance of a scene in a broad sense comprises one of the core modules of pervasive applications. Typically, multiple cameras are installed in an area to identify ev...
