Blending Images for Texturing 3D Models
This paper describes a novel system for building seamless texture maps for a surface of arbitrary topology from real images of the object taken with a standard digital camera and ...

A SOM Based Approach to Skin Detection with Application in Real Time Systems
A large body of human image processing techniques use skin detection as a first primitive for subsequent feature extraction. Well established methods of colour modelling, such as...

Bundle adjustment: a fast method with weak initialisation
Bundle adjustment is one of the cornerstone to recover the scene structure from a sequence of images. The main drawback of this technique, due to nonlinear optimisation, is the ne...

A Case Study in the use of ROC curves for Algorithm Design
We describe the development of a vision system to detect natural events in a low-resolution image stream. The work involves the assessment of algorithmic design decisions to maxim...

The Geometry of Dynamic Scenes - On Coplanar and Convergent Linear Motions Embedded in 3D Static Scenes
In this paper, we consider structure and motion recovery for scenes consisting of static and dynamic features. More particularly, we consider a single moving uncalibrated camera o...

Reactive Memories: An Interactive Talking-Head
We demonstrate a novel method for producing a synthetic talking head. The method is based on earlier work in which the behaviour of a synthetic individual is generated by referenc...

Comparing Variations on the Active Appearance Model Algorithm
The Active Appearance Model (AAM) algorithm has proved to be a successful method for matching statistical models of appearance to new images. Since the original algorithm was desc...

An Information Theoretic Approach to Statistical Shape Modelling
Statistical shape models have been used widely as a basis for segmenting and interpreting images. A major drawback of the approach is the need to establish a set of dense correspo...

Novel View Specification and Synthesis
Given a set of real images, Novel View Synthesis (NVS) aims to produce views of a scene that would correspond to that of a virtual camera. There exist many approaches to solving t...
