This paper proposes a discriminative framework for efficiently aligning images. Although conventional Active Appearance Models (AAM)-based approaches have achieved some success, t...
Snakes, or active contours, are used extensively in
computer vision and image processing applications, particularly
to locate object boundaries. Problems associated with initiali...
We consider the problem of robustly and accurately locating facial features. The relative positions of different feature points are represented using a statistical shape model. We...
