We present a taxonomy for local distance functions where most existing algorithms can be regarded as approximations of the geodesic distance defined by a metric tensor. We categor...

With this paper we offer a game-theoretic perspective for the all-pervasive matching problem in computer vision. Specifically, we formulate the matching problem as a (population) ...

Most motion-based tracking algorithms assume that objects undergo rigid motion, which is most likely disobeyed in real world. In this paper, we present a novel motionbased trackin...

Two surfaces are conformally equivalent if there exists a bijective angle-preserving map between them. The Teichm
