ShadowCuts: Photometric Stereo with Shadows
We present an algorithm for performing Lambertian photometric stereo in the presence of shadows. The algorithm has three novel features. First, a fast graph cuts based method is u...

Human Detection via Classification on Riemannian Manifolds
We present a new algorithm to detect humans in still images utilizing covariance matrices as object descriptors. Since these descriptors do not lie on a vector space, well known m...

A Closed-form Solution to 3D Reconstruction of Piecewise Planar Objects from Single Images
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...

Gradient Intensity: A New Mutual Information-Based Registration Method
Conventional mutual information (MI)-based registration using pixel intensities is time-consuming and ignores spatial information, which can lead to misalignment. We propose a met...

Efficient MRF Deformation Model for Non-Rigid Image Matching
We propose a novel MRF-based model for deformable image matching (also known as registration). The deformation is described by a field of discrete variables, representing displace...

High-Speed Measurement of BRDF using an Ellipsoidal Mirror and a Projector
Measuring BRDF (Bi-directional Reflectance Distribution Function) requires huge amounts of time because a target object must be illuminated from all incident angles and the reflec...

Searching Video for Complex Activities with Finite State Models
We describe a method of representing human activities that allows a collection of motions to be queried without examples, using a simple and effective query language. Our approach...

Multiple View Image Reconstruction: A Harmonic Approach
This paper presents a new constraint connecting the signals in multiple views of a surface. The constraint arises from a harmonic analysis of the geometry of the imaging process a...
