Automatic 3D Reconstruction for Face Recognition
An analysis-by-synthesis framework for face recognition with variant pose, illumination and expression (PIE) is proposed in this paper. First, an efficient 2D-to-3D integrated fac...

Monocular Reconstruction of Human Motion by Qualitative Selection
One of the main difficulties when reconstructing human motion from monocular video is the depth ambiguity. Achieving a reconstruction, given the projection of the joints, can be r...
