Deformable Models for Segmentation, 3D Shape and Motion Estimation and Recognition
نویسنده
چکیده
We present our framework for segmentation, 3D shape and motion estimation and recognition. We first present physics-based modeling techniques for segmentation and 3D shape and motion estimation based on single and multiple views as well as the integration of visual cues such as edges and optical flow. We then present extensions to address the reliable recognition of American Sign Language (ASL), using 3D tracking data, ASL phonology and modifications to the traditional use of Hidden Markov Models. We demonstrate the usefulness of this framework in computer vision and medical image analysis applications.

The aim of this work is to automatically extract quantitative parameters from time sequences of 3D images (4D images) suited to heart pathology diagnosis. In this paper, we propose a framework for the reconstruction of the left ventricle motion from 4D images based on 4D deformable surface models. These 4D models are represented as a time sequence of 3D meshes whose deformation are correlated d...
متن کاملDeformable Shape Detection and Description via Model-Based Region Grouping
ÐA method for deformable shape detection and recognition is described. Deformable shape templates are used to partition the image into a globally consistent interpretation, determined in part by the minimum description length principle. Statistical shape models enforce the prior probabilities on global, parametric deformations for each object class. Once trained, the system autonomously segment...
