Most dense stereo correspondence algorithms start by establishing discrete pixel matches and later refine these matches to sub-pixel precision. Traditional sub-pixel refinement me...
Virtually all structured light methods assume that the scene and the sources are immersed in pure air and that light is neither scattered nor absorbed. Recently, however, structur...

We propose a novel approach for shape-based segmentation based on a specially designed level set function format. This format permits us to better control the process of object re...
In this paper we consider the problem of reconstructing the 3D position and surface normal of points on an unknown, arbitrarily-shaped refractive surface. We show that two viewpoi...
In this paper we show how a segmentation as preprocessing paradigm can be used to improve the efficiency and accuracy of model search in an image. We operationalize this idea usin...
We propose a new technique for fusing multiple cues to robustly segment an object from its background in video sequences that suffer from abrupt changes of both illumination and p...

This paper addresses the problem of shadow extraction from a single image of a complex natural scene. No simplifying assumption on the camera and the light source other than the L...
This paper presents a new surface content completion framework that can restore both shape and appearance from scanned, incomplete point set inputs. First, the geometric holes can...
