Reconstruction of visual appearance
- Proc. of the BMVC
, 1990
"... This paper presents a method for reconstructing the visual appearance of a scene from any viewpoint, given a collection of stereo pairs. A representation is suggested which is flexible and efficient, and algorithms to recover three dimensional structure and grey-level detail by combining a number of ..."

Visual Appearance of Matte Surfaces
- Science
, 1995
"... All visual sensors, biological and artificial, are finite in resolution by necessity. This causes the effective reflectance of surfaces in a scene to vary with magnification. A reflectance model for matte surfaces is described that captures the effect of macroscopic surface undulations on image brig ..."

ON THE VISUAL APPEARANCE OF RELATIVISTIC OBJECTS
, 2007
"... Abstract. It has been almost half a century since Terrell noted that an object moving at relativistic speeds (and observed by light reflected from some point source) is seen not as squashed (as a naive interpretation of the Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction would suggest) but rather as rotated, through ..."

when the object crosses the y-axis; thus ˜ψ = ψ − π/2, where ψ is the angle of observation used in Taylor’s calculations. A relativistic ray-tracing argument now shows that the observed object will appear to us as rotated counterclockwise through an angle φ, satisfying the equation [Taylor X-12 p. 356
Retrieving Images by Similarity of Visual Appearance
- Workshop on Content Based Access of Image Databases (with CVPR
, 1997
"... A system to retrieve images using a description of visual appearance is presented. A multi-scale invariant vector representation is obtained by first filtering images in the database with Gaussian derivative filters at several scales and then computing low order differential invariants. The multi-sc ..."

Active Appearance Models Revisited
- International Journal of Computer Vision
, 2003
"... Active Appearance Models (AAMs) and the closely related concepts of Morphable Models and Active Blobs are generative models of a certain visual phenomenon. Although linear in both shape and appearance, overall, AAMs are nonlinear parametric models in terms of the pixel intensities. Fitting an AAM to ..."

Texture Characterization of the Visual Appearance of Paintings
"... A texture characterization method has been explored to model the visual appearance of paintings, before and after a surface treatment. A preliminary experiment has been conducted to test the texture feature vectors before and after varnishing with Grumbacher’s Picture Varnish liquid. Numerical funct ..."

Learning to Share Visual Appearance for Multiclass Object Detection
"... We present a hierarchical classification model that allows rare objects to borrow statistical strength from related objects that have many training examples. Unlike many of the existing object detection and recognition systems that treat different classes as unrelated entities, our model learns both ..."

Statecharts: A Visual Formalism For Complex Systems
, 1987
"... We present a broad extension of the conventional formalism of state machines and state diagrams, that is relevant to the specification and design of complex discrete-event systems, such as multi-computer real-time systems, communication protocols and digital control units. Our diagrams, which we cal ..."

manageable and comprehensible. In fact, we intend to demonstrate here that statecharts counter many of the objections raised against conventional state diagrams, and thus appear to render specification by diagrams an attractive and plausible approach. Statecharts can be used either as a stand
A Model of Saliency-based Visual Attention for Rapid Scene Analysis
, 1998
"... A visual attention system, inspired by the behavior and the neuronal architecture of the early primate visual system, is presented. Multiscale image features are combined into a single topographical saliency map. A dynamical neural network then selects attended locations in order of decreasing salie ..."

Primates have a remarkable ability to interpret complex scenes in real time, despite the limited speed of the neuronal hardware available for such tasks. Intermediate and higher visual processes appear to select a subset of the available sensory information before further processing [1], most likely
Learning, Positioning, and Tracking Visual Appearance
- Proc. of IEEE Int'l. Conf. on Robotics and Automation
, 1994
"... The problem of vision-based robot positioning and tracking is addressed. A general learning algorithm is presented for determining the mapping between robot position and object appearance. The robot is first moved through several displacements with respect to its desired position, and a large set of ..."
