Sigma Set: A small second order statistical region descriptor
Given an image region of pixels, second order statistics can be used to construct a descriptor for object representation. One example is the covariance matrix descriptor, which sh...

3D Signatures for Fast 3D Face Recognition
We propose a vector representation (called a 3D signature) for 3D face shape in biometrics applications. Elements of the vector correspond to fixed surface points in a face-centere...

A Variational Model for Interactive Shape Prior Segmentation and Real-Time Tracking
In this paper, we introduce a semi-automated segmentation method based on minimizing the Geodesic Active Contour energy incorporating a shape prior. We increase the robustness of t...

A Discrete Reeb Graph Approach for the Segmentation of Human Body Scans
Segmentation of 3D human body (HB) scan is a very challenging problem in applications exploiting human scan data. To tackle this problem, this paper proposes a topological approac...

Optimization of Mesh Locality for Transparent Vertex Caching
Bus traffic between the graphics subsystem and memory can become a bottleneck when rendering geometrically complex meshes. In this paper, we investigate the use of vertex caching...
