This tutorial reviews image alignment and image stitching algorithms. Image alignment
algorithms can discover the correspondence relationships among images with varying …

This paper presents a comprehensive survey of facial feature point detection with the
assistance of abundant manually labeled images. Facial feature point detection favors many …

We propose a semi-direct monocular visual odometry algorithm that is precise, robust, and
faster than current state-of-the-art methods. The semi-direct approach eliminates the need of …

We present a novel discriminative regression based approach for the Constrained Local
Models (CLMs) framework, referred to as the Discriminative Response Map Fitting (DRMF) …

Humans perceive the three-dimensional structure of the world with apparent ease. However,
despite all of the recent advances in computer vision research, the dream of having a …

Abstract Since the Lucas-Kanade algorithm was proposed in 1981 image alignment has
become one of the most widely used techniques in computer vision. Applications range from …

Abstract Active Appearance Models (AAMs) and the closely related concepts of Morphable
Models and Active Blobs are generative models of a certain visual phenomenon. Although …

We present an end-to-end system that goes from video sequences to high resolution,
editable, dynamically controllable face models. The capture system employs synchronized …

Single sample face recognition have become an important problem because of the
limitations on the availability of gallery images. In many real-world applications such as …

Intelligent unmanned systems have important applications, such as pesticide-spraying in
agriculture, robot-based warehouse management systems, and missile-firing drones. The …
