This paper proposes a statistical model for fingerprint ridge orientations. The active fingerprint ridge orientation model (AFROM) iteratively deforms to fit the orientation fi...
A popular approach to pixel labeling problems, such as multiclass image segmentation, is to construct a pairwise conditional Markov random field (CRF) over image pixels where the...
Abstract. This paper is framed in the field of statistical face analysis. In particular, the problem of accurate segmentation of prominent features of the face in frontal view ima...
High-level, or holistic, scene understanding involves
reasoning about objects, regions, and the 3D relationships
between them. This requires a representation above the
level of ...
We present a system for fast model-based segmentation and 3D pose
estimation of specular objects using appearance based specular
features. We use observed (a) specular reflection...
