: Reliably recognizing objects approaching on a collision course is extremely important. In this paper, a synthetic vision system is proposed to tackle the problem of collision rec...
We describe a technique for extracting vertices from range images of cluttered box-like objects. Edge detection is performed and an edge map is acquired. Extraction of vertices is ...
A novel method allowing simplified and efficient active surface initialization for 3D images segmentation is presented. Our method allows to initialize an active surface through si...
We describe a learning based method for recovering 3D human body pose from single images and monocular image sequences. Our approach requires neither an explicit body model nor pri...
Linear and multi-linear models of object shape/appearance (PCA, 3DMM, AAM/ASM, multilinear tensors) have been very popular in computer vision. In this paper, we analyze the validi...
