Pose-Robust Face Recognition Using Geometry Assisted Probabilistic Modeling
Researchers have been working on human face recognition for decades. Face recognition is hard due to different types of variations in face images, such as pose, illumination and e...

Wide-Range, Person- and Illumination-Insensitive Head Orientation Estimation
We present an algorithm for estimation of head orientation, given cropped images of a subject’s head from any viewpoint. Our algorithm handles dramatic changes in illumination, ...

A Variational Approach to Shape from Defocus
We address the problem of estimating the three-dimensional shape and radiance of a surface in space from images obtained with different focal settings. We pose the problem as an in...

Fitting a Morphable Model to 3D Scans of Faces
This paper presents a top-down approach to 3D data analysis by fitting a Morphable Model to scans of faces. In a unified framework, the algorithm optimizes shape, texture, pose an...

Utilizing reflection properties of surfaces to improve mobile robot localization
Abstract-- A main difficulty that arises in the context of probabilistic localization is the design of an appropriate observation model, i.e., determining the likelihood of a senso...
