A variety of flexible models have been proposed to detect
objects in challenging real world scenes. Motivated
by some of the most successful techniques, we propose a
hierarchica...

In this paper we exploit normalized mutual information
for the nonrigid registration of multimodal images.
Rather than assuming that image statistics are spatially
stationary, a...
We present a system for the estimation of unconstrained
3D human upper body movement from multiple cameras.
Its main novelty lies in the integration of three components:
single-...
In this report, we consider whether statistical regularities in natural images might be exploited to provide an improved selection criterion for interest points. One approach that ...
Depth-map merging approaches have become more and
more popular in multi-view stereo (MVS) because of their
flexibility and superior performance. The quality of depth
map used fo...

Oriented patterns, e.g. fingerprints, consist of smoothly
varying flow-like patterns, together with important singular
points (i.e. cores and deltas) where the orientation change...

We study the problem of generating plausible interpretations
of a scene from a collection of line segments automatically
extracted from a single indoor image. We show that
we ca...
This paper introduces a class of correlation filters called
Average of Synthetic Exact Filters (ASEF). For ASEF, the
correlation output is completely specified for each training

This paper presents a nonparametric discriminant HMM
and applies it to facial expression recognition. In the proposed
HMM, we introduce an effective nonparametric output
probabi...

In this paper, we propose a method for estimating the
optical center of a camera given only a single image with
vignetting. This is accomplished by identifying the center
of the...
