We introduce the N-buffer as a tool for multiresolution depth map representation. This neighborhood buffer encodes the value and position of local depth extrema at different scale...
We present a new 3D shape descriptor based on conformal geometry. Our descriptor is invariant under non-rigid quasi-isometric transformations, such as pose changes of articulated ...
Abstract-- This paper presents a novel approach using combined features to retrieve images containing specific objects, scenes or buildings. The content of an image is characterize...
Point clouds are sets of points in two or three dimensions. Most kernel methods for learning on sets of points have not yet dealt with the specific geometrical invariances and pra...
Reliable estimation of visual saliency allows appropriate processing of images without prior knowledge of their content, and thus remains an important step in many computer vision ...
