We propose a method for human activity recognition in videos, based on shape analysis. We define local shape descriptors for interest points on the detected contour of the human a...
This paper proposes a method for detecting instances of shape classes that exhibit variable structure. The term "variable structure" is used to characterize shape classes...

We study the task to infer and to track the viewpoint onto a 3D rigid object by observing its image contours in a sequence of images. To this end, we consider the manifold of invar...

Shape-From-Silhouette (SFS), also known as Visual Hull (VH) construction, is a popular 3D reconstruction method which estimates the shape of an object from multiple silhouette ima...
The creation of realistic 3D face models is still a fundamental problem in computer graphics. In this paper we present a novel method to obtain the 3D shape of an arbitrary human ...
