Modelling Faces Dynamically across Views and Over Time
A comprehensive novel multi-view dynamic face model is presented in this paper to address two challenging problems in face recognition and facial analysis: modelling faces with la...

A Versatile Method for Trifocal Tensor Estimation
Reliable estimation of the trifocal tensor is crucial for 3D reconstruction from uncalibrated cameras. The estimation process is based on minimizing the geometric distances betwee...

The Earth Mover's Distance is the Mallows Distance: Some Insights from Statistics
The Earth Mover's distance was first introduced as a purely empirical way to measure texture and color similarities. We show that it has a rigorous probabilistic interpretati...

Visual Servoing Invariant to Changes in Camera Intrinsic Parameters
This paper presents a new visual servoing scheme which is invariant to changes in camera intrinsic parameters. Current visual servoing techniques are based on the learning of a ref...

Incorporating Differential Constraints in a 3D Reconstruction Process. Application to Stereo
We propose to incorporate a priori geometric constraints in a 3?D stereo reconstruction scheme to cope with the many cases where image information alone is not sufficient to accur...

Dimensional Analysis of Image Motion
Studies of image motion typically address motion categories on a case-by-case basis. Examples include a moving point, a moving contour, or a 2D optical flow field. The typical ass...

Hierarchical Pre-Segmentation without Prior Knowledge
A new method to pre-segment images by means of a hierarchical description is proposed. This description is obtained from an investigation of the deep structure of a scale space im...

Learning Inhomogeneous Gibbs Model of Faces by Minimax Entropy
In this paper we propose a novel inhomogeneous Gibbs model by the minimax entropy principle, and apply it to face modeling. The maximum entropy principle generalizes the statistic...
