Thin plate spline (TPS) transformations have been applied to non-rigid shape matching with impressive results. However, existing methods often use a sparse set of point correspond...
Abstract We present an active learning framework that predicts the tradeoff between the effort and information gain associated with a candidate image annotation, thereby ranking un...
In this paper we present a method to robustly detect circular arcs in a line drawing image. The method is fast, robust and very reliable, and is capable of assessing the quality of...
