Probabilistic Contour Extraction Using Hierarchical Shape Representation
In this paper, we address the issue of extracting contour of the object with a specific shape. A hierarchical graphical model is proposed to represent shape variations. A complex ...

Can Two Specular Pixels Calibrate Photometric Stereo?
Lambertian photometric stereo with unknown light source parameters is ambiguous. Provided that the object imaged constitutes a surface, the ambiguity is represented by the group o...

On Optimal Light Configurations in Photometric Stereo
This paper develops new theory for the optimal placement of photometric stereo lighting in the presence of camera noise. We show that for three lights, any triplet of orthogonal l...

A Symmetric Patch-Based Correspondence Model for Occlusion Handling
Occlusion is one of the challenging problems in stereo. In this paper, we solve the problem in a segment-based style. Both images are segmented, and we propose a novel patchbased ...

Avoiding the "Streetlight Effect": Tracking by Exploring Likelihood Modes
Classic methods for Bayesian inference effectively constrain search to lie within regions of significant probability of the temporal prior. This is efficient with an accurate dyna...

Active Search for Real-Time Vision
In most cases when information is to be extracted from an image, there are priors available on the state of the world and therefore on the detailed measurements which will be obta...
