The distribution of the apparent 3D shape of human faces across the view-sphere is complex, owing to factors such as variations in identity, facial expression, minor occlusions an...
—Three-dimensional shape matching is a fundamental issue in computer vision with many applications such as shape registration, 3D object recognition, and classification. However,...

We propose use of an appearance manifold with embedded covariance matrix as a technique for recognizing 3D objects from images that are influenced by geometric and quality-degrade...
We introduce an approach to accurately detect and segment partially occluded objects in various viewpoints and scales. Our main contribution is a novel framework for combining obj...
In this paper, we report on recent extensions to a surface matching algorithm based on local 3-D signatures. This algorithm was previously shown to be effective in view registrati...
