We present a method ? termed Helmholtz stereopsis ? for reconstructing the geometry of objects from a collection of images. Unlike existing methods for surface reconstruction (e.g...

This paper presents a new method for constructing compact statistical point-based models of ensembles of similar shapes that does not rely on any specific surface parameterization....

The state of the art for large database object retrieval in images is based on quantizing descriptors of interest points into visual words. High similarity between matching image r...
Decorative reliefs are widely used for e.g. packaging and porcelain design. In periodic reliefs, the relief repeats a pattern, for example all the way around an underlying surface...
