Abecassis, Sera, Yonas, and Schwade (2001) have shown that young children represent shapes more metrically, and perhaps more holistically, than do older children and adults. How d...
In this paper, we aim to reconstruct free-form 3D models from only one or few silhouettes by learning the prior knowledge of a specific class of objects. Instead of heuristically...
What does it mean for a deforming object to be "moving" (see Fig. 1)? How can we separate the overall motion (a finite-dimensional group action) from the more general de...
In order to recognize plant species from their shapes, shapes of contours of leaves can be used. However, contours of leaves are complicated and have variations. In order to deal ...
The authors propose a face recognition algorithm robust against the illumination variations, using an average face shape. The objective of this paper is two-fold: (1) to propose a...
