Abstract. This paper presents anovel variational method forimage segmentation that uni es boundary and region-based information sources under the Geodesic Active Region framework. ...
Background: Support Vector Machines (SVMs) ? using a variety of string kernels ? have been successfully applied to biological sequence classification problems. While SVMs achieve ...
We present variable-aperture photography, a new method for analyzing sets of images captured with different aperture settings, with all other camera parameters fixed. We show that...
Given a 3D solid model S represented by a tetrahedral mesh, we describe a novel algorithm to compute a hierarchy of convex polyhedra that tightly enclose S. The hierarchy can be b...

In this paper we present a general method for rapid prototyping of realistic character motion. We solve for the natural motion from a simple animation provided by the animator. Ou...
