We propose a novel nonlinear, probabilistic and variational method for adding shape information to level setbased segmentation and tracking. Unlike previous work, we represent sha...
We propose a novel probabilistic framework for learning
visual models of 3D object categories by combining appearance
information and geometric constraints. Objects are
represen...
Model Abstraction from Examples Yakov Keselman, Member, IEEE, and Sven Dickinson, Member, IEEE The recognition community has typically avoided bridging the representational gap bet...
Abstract. Statistical shape and texture appearance models are powerful image representations, but previously had been restricted to 2D or 3D shapes with smooth surfaces and lambert...

We construct an image segmentation scheme that combines top-down (TD) with bottom-up (BU) processing. In the proposed scheme, segmentation and recognition are intertwined rather th...
