Spatio-temporal 3D pose estimation and tracking of human body parts using the Shape Flow algorithm
In this contribution we introduce the Shape Flow algorithm (SF), a novel method for spatio-temporal 3D pose estimation of a 3D parametric curve. The SF is integrated into a tracki...

Metric-Induced Optimal Embedding for Intrinsic 3D Shape Analysis
For various 3D shape analysis tasks, the LaplaceBeltrami(LB) embedding has become increasingly popular as it enables the efficient comparison of shapes based on intrinsic geometry...

Comprehensible rendering of 3-D shapes
We propose a new rendering technique that produces 3-D images with enhanced visual comprehensibility. Shape features can be readily understood if certain geometric properties are ...

Flexible flow for 3D nonrigid tracking and shape recovery
We introduce linear methods for model-based tracking of nonrigid 3D objects and for acquiring such models from video. 3D motions and flexions are calculated directly from image in...

Visual Hull Alignment and Refinement Across Time: A 3D Reconstruction Algorithm Combining Shape-From-Silhouette with Stereo
Visual Hull (VH) construction from silhouette images is a popular method of shape estimation. The method, also known as Shape-From-Silhouette (SFS), is used in many applications s...
