Given the facial points extracted from an image of a face in an arbitrary pose, the goal of facial-point-based headpose normalization is to obtain the corresponding facial points ...
We present a method to analyze daily activities, such as meal preparation, using video from an egocentric camera. Our method performs inference about activities, actions, hands, a...
In this paper we develop an algorithm for action recognition and localization in videos. The algorithm uses a figurecentric visual word representation. Different from previous ap...
Effective and efficient generation of keypoints from an image is a well-studied problem in the literature and forms the basis of numerous Computer Vision applications. Establishe...

We present a multispectral photometric stereo method for capturing geometry of deforming surfaces. A novel photometric calibration technique allows calibration of scenes containin...
In this work we propose a method for estimating disparity maps from very few measurements. Based on the theory of Compressive Sensing, our algorithm accurately reconstructs dispar...
The 3D shape of the human body is useful for applications in fitness, games and apparel. Accurate body scanners, however, are expensive, limiting the availability of 3D body mode...
Most existing techniques for analyzing face images assume that the faces are at near-frontal poses. Generalizing to non-frontal faces is often difficult, due to a dearth of groun...
Gaining invariance to camera and illumination variations has been a well investigated topic in Active Appearance Model (AAM) fitting literature. The major problem lies in the ina...
