Recent progress in modelling, animation and rendering means that rich, high fidelity virtual
worlds are found in many interactive graphics applications. However, the viewer's …

Publisher Summary This chapter reviews that continuous constraint solving has been widely
studied in several fields of applied mathematics and computer science. In computer algebra …

Humans perceive the three-dimensional structure of the world with apparent ease. However,
despite all of the recent advances in computer vision research, the dream of having a …

We present a neural network-based upright frontal face detection system. A retinally
connected neural network examines small windows of an image and decides whether each …

Constraint programming is a powerful paradigm for solving combinatorial search problems
that draws on a wide range of techniques from artificial intelligence, computer science …

We describe a technique that transforms a video from a hand-held video camera so that it
appears as if it were taken with a directed camera motion. Our method adjusts the video to …

We propose a method for automated aerial videography in dynamic and cluttered
environments. An online receding horizon optimization formulation facilitates the planning …

Paramet erizing three degree-of-freedom (DOF) rotat ions is difficult to do well. Many
graphics applications demand that we be able to compute and differentiate positions and …
