Uncalibrated Factorization Using a Variable Symmetric Affine Camera
Abstract. In order to reconstruct 3-D Euclidean shape by the TomasiKanade factorization, one needs to specify an affine camera model such as orthographic, weak perspective, and par...

Modeling 3D Objects from Stereo Views and Recognizing Them in Photographs
Local appearance models in the neighborhood of salient image features, together with local and/or global geometric constraints, serve as the basis for several recent and effective...

Fast Memory-Efficient Generalized Belief Propagation
Generalized Belief Propagation (gbp) has proven to be a promising technique for performing inference on Markov random fields (mrfs). However, its heavy computational cost and large...

Ellipse Fitting with Hyperaccuracy
For fitting an ellipse to a point sequence, ML (maximum likelihood) has been regarded as having the highest accuracy. In this paper, we demonstrate the existence of a "hyperac...

Describing and Matching 2D Shapes by Their Points of Mutual Symmetry
A novel shape descriptor is introduced. It groups pairs of points that share a geometrical property that is based on their mutual symmetry. The descriptor is visualized as a diagon...

Level-Set Curve Particles
In many applications it is necessary to track a moving and deforming boundary on the plane from infrequent, sparse measurements. For instance, each of a set of mobile observers may...
