Recreation of 3D crime scenes is critical for law enforcement in the investigation of serious
crimes for criminal justice responses. This work presents a premier systematic literature …

Blood-drop trajectory analysis can provide investigators with retrospective information
regarding the spatial positioning of an injured person. To assist with bloodstain pattern …

When computer security violations are detected, computer forensic analysts attempting to
determine the relevant causes and effects are forced to perform the tedious tasks of finding …

It is a conventional belief that line-based approaches perform better than point-based ones
for homography estimation, as the line-fitting is generally more noise resistant than point …

Directional analysis provides quantitative data supporting the three-dimensional estimation
of the area of origin for impact bloodstain pattern analysis. The final stage of directional …

Ellipses are a widely used cue in many 2D and 3D object recognition pipelines. In fact, they
exhibit a number of useful properties. First, they are naturally occurring in many man-made …

How to avoid ambiguity is a challenging problem for conic-based homography estimation. In
this paper, we address the problem of homography estimation from two separate ellipses …

For the robust detection of pedestrians in intelligent video surveillance, an approach to multi-
view and multi-plane data fusion is proposed. Through the estimated homography …

As we all know, in computer vision, conics are widely applied as one of the most underlying
image features together with points or lines and sometimes the correspondences of the …

We present a method of reconstructing the area of origin for blood droplets given the
position and directions of impact stains. This method works for nonlinear trajectories, such …
