چکیده
A novel curve segmentation algorithm for detennining control points for deformable-model-based target tracking is proposed. The algorithm is parameterless enabling a full-fledged automated tracking regard1e:w of the shape of the object being tracked. Compared with other curve segmentation algorithms, it selects a minimal number of control points that yet deliver a superior shape description. The algorithm is comparatively tested with other curve segmentation algorithms in a variety of characteristic target outlines.

متن کاملAutomatic Facial Expression Tracking for 4D Range Scans
This paper presents a fully automatic approach of spatio-temporal facial expression tracking for 4D range scans without any manual interventions (such as specifying landmarks). The approach consists of three steps: rigid registration, facial model reconstruction, and facial expression tracking. A Scaling Iterative Closest Points (SICP) algorithm is introduced to compute the optimal rigid regist...
