Shape is an important cue for generic object recognition but can be insufficient without other cues such as object appearance. We explore a number of ways in which the geometric a...
In this paper, we propose a novel predictive model for
object boundary, which can integrate information from any
sources. The model is a dynamic “object” model whose
manifes...

Existing 3D sketching methods typically allow the user to draw in empty space which is imprecise and lacks tactile feedback. We introduce a shape-stamping interface where users ca...

In this paper, we present an approach toward pedestrian detection and tracking from infrared imagery using joint shape and appearance cues. A layered representation is first intr...
Noble forces in image segmentation based on active contours models are proposed for capturing objects in the image. Contemplating the common functionality of forces in previous ac...
