A new method of representing a surface in the 3D space as a single digitally continuous sequence of faces is described. The method is based on topological properties of quasi-manif...
—A near-regular texture (NRT) is a geometric and photometric deformation from its regular origin—a congruent wallpaper pattern formed by 2D translations of a single tile. A dyn...
The task of identifying 3D objects in 2D images is difficult due to variation in objects' appearance with changes in pose and lighting. The task is further complicated by the...
This paper describes a system to create animated 3D scenes of car accidents from written reports. The text-to-scene conversion process consists of two stages. An information extrac...
We present a real-time algorithm to estimate the 3D
pose of a previously unseen face from a single range im-
age. Based on a novel shape signature to identify noses in
range ima...
