In recent years the Markov Random Field (MRF) has
become the de facto probabilistic model for low-level vision
applications. However, in a maximum a posteriori
(MAP) framework, ...

This paper presents a new deformable modeling strategy aimed at integrating shape and appearance in a unified space. If we think traditional deformable models as "active cont...
Statistical shape-and-texture appearance models use image morphing to define a rich, compact representation of object appearance. They are useful in a variety of applications incl...

Abstract— Perceiving human faces is one of the most important functions for human robot interaction. The active appearance model (AAM) is a statistical approach that models the s...
An unsupervised classification algorithm is derived by modeling observed data as a mixture of several mutually exclusive classes that are each described by linear combinations of i...
