Linear and nonlinear generative probabilistic class models for shape contours
We introduce a robust probabilistic approach to modeling shape contours based on a lowdimensional, nonlinear latent variable model. In contrast to existing techniques that use obj...

Learning from Humanoid Cartoon Designs
Abstract. Character design is a key ingredient to the success of any comicbook, graphic novel, or animated feature. Artists typically use shape, size and proportion as the first de...

Shining a Light on Human Pose: On Shadows, Shading and the Estimation of Pose and Shape
Strong lighting is common in natural scenes yet is often viewed as a nuisance for object pose estimation and tracking. In human shape and pose estimation, cast shadows can be conf...

Supervised segmentation and tracking of nonrigid objects using a "mixture of histograms" model
Segmentation and tracking of objects in video sequences is important for a number of applications. In the supervised variant, segmentation can be achieved by modelling the probabi...

3D Pose Estimation of Cactus Leaves using an Active Shape Model
Future Machine Vision applications have to cope with 3D non-rigid objects. One such application is 3D pose estimation of cactus leaves, which is the topic in this paper. We apply ...
