Shape-From-Silhouette (SFS), also known as Visual Hull (VH) construction, is a popular 3D reconstruction method which estimates the shape of an object from multiple silhouette ima...
We consider the problem of learning with instances defined over a space of sets of vectors. We derive a new positive definite kernel f(A B) defined over pairs of matrices A B base...
Face detection systems have recently achieved high detection rates[11, 8, 5] and real-time performance[11]. However, these methods usually rely on a huge training database (around...
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a programmable imaging system. Such an imaging system provides a human user or a vision system significant control over the radiometric a...
The appearance of surface texture as it varies with angular changes of view and illumination is becoming an increasingly important research topic. The bidirectional texture functi...
