Light occlusions are one of the most significant difficulties of photometric stereo methods. When three or more images are available without occlusion, the local surface orientation is overdetermined so that shape can be computed and the shadowed pixels can be discarded. In this paper, we look at the challenging case when only two images are available without occlusion, leading to a one degree of...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach that combines particle filter tracking and 3D graph cut based segmentation to achieve silhouette tracking against drastic scale change and occlusion. The segmentation module offers particle filter tracking procedure the target shape information to compensate spatial information loss in the histogram based particle filter tracking process. Meanwhile, particle...
We present a markerless tracking system for unconstrained human motions which are typical for everyday manipulation tasks. Our system is capable of tracking a high-dimensional human model (51 DOF) without constricting the type of motion and the need for training sequences. The system reliably tracks humans that frequently interact with the environment, that manipulate objects, and that can be partially...
In this paper we present a new ??one-shot?? method to reconstruct the shape of dynamic 3D objects and scenes based on active illumination. In common with other related prior-art methods, a static grid pattern is projected onto the scene, a video sequence of the illuminated scene is captured, a shape estimate is produced independently for each video frame, and the one-shot property is realized at the...
Most 3D object retrieval and matching methods only consider geometric similarity. This paper introduces a novel descriptor, Shape-Colour Histograms, to match objects with similar shape and appearance. This is motivated by the requirement to concatenate captured 3D video sequences for animation production. A quantitative evaluation based on the Receiver-Operator Characteristic (ROC) curve is presented...
