—Predictive modeling aims at constructing models that predict a target property of an object based on its descriptions. In digital human modeling, it can be applied to predicting...
We consider the problem of image segmentation using active contours through the minimization of an energy criterion involving both region and boundary functionals. These functiona...
In this paper we present a novel class-based segmentation method, which is guided by a stored representation of the shape of objects within a general class (such as horse images). ...
We present an approach to estimate the poses of human heads in natural scenes. The essential features for estimating the head pose are the positions of the prominent facial featur...
In this paper we present a robust approach to construct a map between two triangulated meshes, M and M' of arbitrary and possibly unequal genus. We introduce a novel initial ...
