In this paper, we present a region-based deformable cylinder model, extending the work on classical region-based active contours and gradient-based ribbon snakes. Defined by a cent...
Abstract. Multiple elements such as lighting, colors, dialogue, and camera motion contribute to the style of a movie. Among them, camera motion is commonly overlooked yet a crucial...
We consider the problem of estimating 3-d structure from a single still image of an outdoor urban scene. Our goal is to efficiently create 3-d models which are visually pleasant. W...

Abstract. In this paper we present a new approach for establishing correspondences between sparse image features related by an unknown non-rigid mapping and corrupted by clutter an...

Abstract. We propose a novel method for action detection based on a new action descriptor called a shape flow that represents both the shape and movement of an object in a holistic...
Abstract. The visual analysis of human manipulation actions is of interest for e.g. human-robot interaction applications where a robot learns how to perform a task by watching a hu...
Abstract. Matching of rigid shapes is an important problem in numerous applications across the boundary of computer vision, pattern recognition and computer graphics communities. A...
We address the problem of efficiently estimating the rotation of a camera relative to the canonical 3D Cartesian frame of an urban scene, under the so-called "Manhattan World&...

Over the years, several spatio-temporal interest point detectors have been proposed. While some detectors can only extract a sparse set of scaleinvariant features, others allow for...
Abstract. Recently, impressive results have been reported for the detection of objects in challenging real-world scenes. Interestingly however, the underlying models vary greatly e...
