Image category recognition is important to access visual information on the level of objects and scene types. So far, intensity-based descriptors have been widely used. To increas...

We present a novel algorithm for simultaneous color and depth inpainting. The algorithm takes stereo images and estimated disparity maps as input and fills in missing color and d...

We present a new approach to the matting problem which splits the task into two steps: interactive trimap extraction followed by trimap-based alpha matting. By doing so we gain co...

Second-order priors on the smoothness of 3D surfaces are a better model of typical scenes than first-order priors. However, stereo reconstruction using global inference algorithm...

Computer users with visual impairment cannot access the rich graphical contents in print or digital media unless relying on visual-to-tactile conversion, which is done primarily b...
Linear and multi-linear models of object shape/appearance (PCA, 3DMM, AAM/ASM, multilinear tensors) have been very popular in computer vision. In this paper, we analyze the validi...
Structured-light methods actively generate geometric correspondence data between projectors and cameras in order to facilitate robust 3D reconstruction. In this paper, we present ...
In this paper, we describe a set of hardware and software tools for creating musical controllers with any flat surface or simple object, such as tables, walls, metallic plates, wo...
Abstract. Segmentation of images is often posed as a variational problem. As such, it is solved by formulating an energy functional depending on a contour and other image derived t...
