Interactive Shape from Shading
Shape from shading (SfS) has always been difficult for real applications due to its intrinsic ill-posedness. In this paper, we propose an interactive SfS method which efficiently ...

Globally convergent limited memory bundle method for large-scale nonsmooth optimization
Many practical optimization problems involve nonsmooth (that is, not necessarily differentiable) functions of thousands of variables. In the paper [Haarala, Miettinen, M¨akel¨a,...

From Local Pixel Structure to Global Image Super-Resolution: A New Face Hallucination Framework
Abstract—We have developed a new face hallucination framework termed from local pixel structure to global image super-resolution (LPS-GIS). Based on the assumption that two simil...

Globally Optimal Estimation of Nonrigid Image Distortion
Abstract Image alignment in the presence of non-rigid distortions is a challenging task. Typically, this involves estimating the parameters of a dense deformation field that warps...
