This paper presents a new model of object classes which incorporates appearance and shape information jointly. Modeling objects appearance by distributions of visual words has rec...
This work presents a novel people tracking approach, able to cope with frequent shape changes and large occlusions. In particular, the tracks are described by means of probabilist...

Using the framework of higher-order active contours, we present a new quadratic continuation energy for the extraction of line networks (e.g. road, hydrographic, vascular) in the ...
Real scenes are full of specularities (highlights and reflections), and yet most vision algorithms ignore them. In order to capture the appearance of realistic scenes, we need to ...

This paper describes an algorithm for pose and illumination invariant face recognition from a single image under occlusions. The method iteratively estimates the parameters of a 3...
