Non-rigid registration requires a smoothness or regularization term for making the warp field regular. Standard models in use here include b-splines and thin plate splines. In thi...

In this paper, we present a face authentication system that can be broken down in three stages. Prior to feature extraction, a pose correction step is applied, so that frontal fac...
Facial expression passes through nonlinear shape and appearance deformations with variations in different people and expressions. We present nonlinear shape and appearance models ...
The aim of this work is to learn a shape prior model
for an object class and to improve shape matching with the
learned shape prior. Given images of example instances,
we can le...
In this paper we introduce a new class of diffeomorphic smoothers based on general spline smoothing techniques and on the use of some tools that have been recently developed in th...
