Active shape model (ASM) statistically represents a shape by a set of well-defined landmark points and models object variations using principal component analysis (PCA). However, ...
Interactive animation systems often use a level-of-detail (LOD) control to reduce the computational cost by eliminating unperceivable details of the scene. Most methods employ a m...
Distance measures, along with shape features, are the most critical components in a shape-based 3D model retrieval system. Given a shape feature, an optimal distance measure will v...

In this paper, we present a novel method for human action recognition from any arbitrary view image sequence that uses the Cartesian component of optical flow velocity and human ...
Ranking algorithms, whose goal is to appropriately order a set of objects/documents, are an important component of information retrieval systems. Previous work on ranking algorith...
