The Gaussian distribution is the basis for many methods used in the statistical analysis of shape. One such method is principal component analysis, which has proven to be a powerfu...

We present a novel representation of shape for closed planar contours explicitly designed to possess a linear structure. This greatly simplifies linear operations such as averagin...

Discriminative approaches for human pose estimation model the functional mapping, or conditional distribution, between image features and 3D pose. Learning such multi-modal models ...
Tracking and recognizing non-rigid objects in video image sequences are complex tasks of increasing importance to many applications. In this paper, we present a hierarchical reali...
