Detecting objects in complex scenes while recovering the scene layout is a critical functionality in many vision-based applications. Inspired by the work of [18], we advocate the ...
—In this paper, we introduce a novel method to solve shape alignment problems. We use gray-scale “images” to represent source shapes, and propose a novel two-component Gaussi...
The core of most registration algorithms aligns scan data by pairs, minimizing their relative distance. This local optimization must generally pass through a validation procedure t...
—Cast shadows can be significant in many computer vision applications, such as lighting-insensitive recognition and surface reconstruction. Nevertheless, most algorithms neglect ...

— This paper presents an interior point approach to exact distance computation between convex objects represented as intersections of implicit surfaces. Exact distance computatio...
