The Naked Truth: Estimating Body Shape Under Clothing
We propose a method to estimate the detailed 3D shape of a person from images of that person wearing clothing. The approach exploits a model of human body shapes that is learned from a database of over 2000 range scans. We show that the parameters of this shape model can be recovered independently of body pose. We further propose a generalization of the visual hull to account for the fact that ...
متن کاملWnt signaling: The Naked truth?
Frizzled receptors can activate two alternative signal transduction pathways: the canonical Wnt pathway or the planar cell polarity pathway. Recent studies of the Naked cuticle protein suggest a mechanism for the inactivation of the canonical pathway and concomitant activation of the planar cell polarity pathway.
متن کاملThe Naked Truth: The Face and Body Sensitive N170 Response Is Enhanced for Nude Bodies
Recent event-related potential studies have shown that the occipitotemporal N170 component--best known for its sensitivity to faces--is also sensitive to perception of human bodies. Considering that in the timescale of evolution clothing is a relatively new invention that hides the bodily features relevant for sexual selection and arousal, we investigated whether the early N170 brain response w...
متن کاملThe Naked Truth or the Shadow of Doubt? X-Rays and the Problematic of Transparency
Late into the evening of 8 November 1895 Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, a physics professor at the University of Würzburg, made a discovery that would revolutionize science almost overnight. While conducting experiments with cathode rays in his laboratory, he remarked a peculiar glow with highly unusual properties emanating from a nearby fluorescent screen, the source of which he could not identify. T...
