Corners and curves are important image features in many vision-based applications. Corners are usually more stable and easier to match than curves,while curves contain richer info...
Many boundaries between objects in the world project onto curves in an image. However, boundaries involving natural objects (e.g., trees, hair, water, smoke) are often unworkable ...
We present a method for modeling a scene that is observed by a moving camera, where only a portion of the scene is visible at any time. This method uses mixture models to represen...
This paper describes a fast and robust approach to recovering structure and motion from video frames. It rst describes a robust recursive factorization method for ane projection...

We present a novel approach for learning patterns (sub-images) shared by multiple images without prior knowledge about the number and the positions of the patterns in the images. ...
We use cluster analysis as a unifying principle for problems from low, middle and high level vision. The clustering problem is viewed as graph partitioning, where nodes represent ...
Background modeling is a common component in video surveillance systems and is used to quickly identify regions of interest. To increase the robustness of background subtraction t...

We formulate face alignment as a model-based parameter estimation problem in this paper. First, we work within a framework that combines two separate subspace models to r epresent...
A new tracker is presented. Two sets are identified: one which contains all possible curves as found in the image, and a second which contains all curves which characterize the o...
