In photometric stereo a robust method is required to deal with outliers, such as shadows and non-Lambertian reflections. In this paper we rely on a probabilistic imaging model tha...
We propose a novel statistical method for motion detection and background maintenance for a mobile observer. Our method is based on global motion estimation and statistical backgro...
Belief propagation (BP) is an effective algorithm for solving energy minimization problems in computer vision. However, it requires enormous memory, bandwidth, and computation beca...

This paper introduces a new stochastic surface model for deformable 3D surfaces and demonstrates its utility for the purpose of 3D sculpting. This is the problem of simple-touse a...

In this paper we present a framework for semantic scene parsing and object recognition based on dense depth maps. Five viewindependent 3D features that vary with object class are e...
