: Measuring ellipticity is an important area of computer vision systems. Most existing ellipticity measures are area based and cannot be easily applied to point sets such as extrac...
Abstract. Active Appearance Models (AAM) are compact representations of the shape and appearance of objects. Fitting AAMs to images is a difficult, non-linear optimization task. Tr...
Let f be a function on Rd that is monotonic in every variable. There are 2d possible assignments to the directions of monotonicity (two per variable). We provide sufficient condit...
The paracatadioptric camera is one of the most popular panoramic systems currently available in the market. It provides a wide field of view by combining a parabolic shaped mirror...
Genetic Algorithms have widely been used for solving optimization problems in stationary environments. In recent years, there has been a growing interest for investigating and imp...
