Statistical appearance models are valuable tools in medical image segmentation. Current methods elegantly incorporate global shape and appearance, but can not cope with local appe...
Both example-based and model-based approaches for classifying contour shapes can encounter difficulties when dealing with classes that have large nonlinear variability, especially...
– Future space missions are expected to use robotic systems to assemble, inspect, and maintain large space structures in orbit. To carry out these tasks, robots need to know the ...
We describe a system for the animation of a skeleton-controlled articulated object that preserves the fine geometric details of the object skin and conforms to the characteristic ...

In this paper, the well-known SIFT detector is extended with a bivariate feature localization. This is done by using function models that assume a Gaussian feature shape for the de...
