Abstract — The natural environments that robotic applications often encounter can present difficult problems for imagebased task execution. Prior efforts have used both grayscale...
This paper presents a fast and robust sprite generation algorithm for MPEG-4 video coding. Our contributions consist of two aspects. Firstly, a fast and robust Global Motion Estima...
— Local image features are used for a wide range of applications in computer vision and range imaging. While there is a great variety of detector-descriptor combinations for imag...
This paper addresses the problem of tracking a 3D plane over a sequence of images acquired by a free moving camera, a task that is of central importance to a wide variety of visio...
We cast the problem of multiframe stereo reconstruction of a smooth shape as the global region segmentation of a collection of images of the scene. Dually, the problem of segmenti...
