We introduce a variational approach to image segmentation based on sparse coverings of image domains by shape templates. The objective function combines a data term that achieves ...

We propose a new algorithm for two-phase, piecewise-smooth segmentation with shape prior. The image is segmented by a binary template that is deformed by a regular geometric transf...

In this paper, we propose techniques to make use of two complementary bottom-up features, image edges and texture patches, to guide top-down object segmentation towards higher pre...

In this paper, we propose a general framework for fusing bottom-up segmentation with top-down object behavior classification over an image sequence. This approach is beneficial fo...
We describe a technique for reconstructing probable occluded surfaces from 3-D range images. The technique exploits the fact that many objects possess shape symmetries that can be...
