Abstract. In recent years there has been growing interest in recognition models using local image features for applications ranging from long range motion matching to object class ...
Abstract. Active Appearance Models (AAM) are compact representations of the shape and appearance of objects. Fitting AAMs to images is a difficult, non-linear optimization task. Tr...
Understanding and modifying the effects of arbitrary illumination on human faces in a realistic manner is a challenging problem both for face synthesis and recognition. Recent res...
Illuminant estimation from shadows typically relies on accurate segmentation of the shadows and knowledge of exact 3D geometry, while shadow estimation is difficult in the presen...
In previous work we have presented a prototype of an assistant system for the blind that can be used for self-localization and interactive object identification of static objects ...
