Many approaches to object recognition are founded on probability theory, and can be broadly characterized as either generative or discriminative according to whether or not the di...
Images of an object undergoing ego- or camera- motion
often appear to be scaled, rotated, and deformed versions
of each other. To detect and match such distorted patterns
to a s...
This paper proposes a new approach to 3D reconstruction of piecewise planar objects based on two image regularities, connectivity and perspective symmetry. First, we formulate the...
Many object classes, including human faces, can be modeled as a set of characteristic parts arranged in a variable spatial con guration. We introduce a simpli ed model of a deforma...
Interactive graph cuts are widely used in object segmentation but with some disadvantages: 1) Manual interactions may cause inaccurate or even incorrect segmentation results and i...
