Maximisation of Consensus (MaxCon) is one of the most widely used robust criteria in computer vision. Tennakoon et al. (CVPR2021), made a connection between MaxCon and estimation of influences of a Monotone Boolean function. In such, there are two distributions involved: the distribution defining th…
Community detection in random graphs or hypergraphs is an interesting fundamental problem in statistics, machine learning and computer vision. When the hypergraphs are generated by a {\em stochastic block model}, the existence of a sharp threshold on the model parameters for community detection was…
Robust model fitting is a core algorithm in a large number of computer vision applications. Solving this problem efficiently for highly contaminated datasets is, however, still challenging due to its underlying computational complexity. Recent attention has been focused on learning-based algorithms.…
Automatic generation of video captions is a fundamental challenge in computer vision. Recent techniques typically employ a combination of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recursive Neural Networks (RNNs) for video captioning. These methods mainly focus on tailoring sequence learning through…
Reconstructing 3D facial geometry from a single RGB image has recently instigated wide research interest. However, it is still an ill-posed problem and most methods rely on prior models hence undermining the accuracy of the recovered 3D faces. In this paper, we exploit the Epipolar Plane Images (EPI…
Deep networks trained on millions of facial images are believed to be closely approaching human-level performance in face recognition. However, open world face recognition still remains a challenge. Although, 3D face recognition has an inherent edge over its 2D counterpart, it has not benefited from…
We present an algorithm for automatic detection of a large number of anthropometric landmarks on 3D faces. Our approach does not use texture and is completely shape based in order to detect landmarks that are morphologically significant. The proposed algorithm evolves level set curves with adaptive…
