Counter camouflage through the removal of reflectance (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Sun, J. (2010, December). Counter camouflage through the removal of reflectance. Paper presented at 2010 IEEE The 3rd International Conference on Machine Vision, Hong Kong

This paper presents a new strategy to counter camouflage by capturing (one more) additional images of same scene. The strategy is based on a technique we call 'two-light photometric stereo', which can remove disruptive reflectance from luminance imag...

Biologically inspired 3D face recognition from surface normals (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Hansen, M. F., & Atkinson, G. (2010, September). Biologically inspired 3D face recognition from surface normals. Paper presented at Procedia Computer Science, Coimbatore, India

A major consideration in state-of-the-art face recognition systems is the amount of data that is required to represent a face. Even a small (64 × 64) photograph of a face has 2 12 dimensions in which a face may sit. When large (> 1MB) photographs of...

An efficient and practical 3D face scanner using near infrared and visible photometric stereo (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Atkinson, G., Hansen, M. F., Smith, M., & Smith, L. (2010, September). An efficient and practical 3D face scanner using near infrared and visible photometric stereo. Paper presented at International Conference and Exhibition on Biometrics Technology, Coimbatore, India

This paper is concerned with the acquisition of model data for automatic 3D face recognition applications. As 3D methods become progressively more popular in face recognition research, the need for fast and accurate data capture has become crucial. T...

Multi-scale depth from slope with weights (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Saracchini, R., Stolfi, J., Leitão, H., Atkinson, G., & Smith, M. (2010, September). Multi-scale depth from slope with weights. Poster presented at British Machine Vision Conference, Aberystwyth, Wales

We describe a robust method to recover the depth coordinate from a normal or slope map of a scene, obtained e.g. through photometric stereo or interferometry. The key feature of our method is the fast solution of the Poisson-like integration equation... Read More about Multi-scale depth from slope with weights.

An automated mean-shift based segmentation for pigmented skin lesions (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Zhao, L., Sun, J., Smith, M., Smith, L., & Warr, R. (2010, July). An automated mean-shift based segmentation for pigmented skin lesions. Paper presented at 2010 Proceedings of Medical Image Understanding and Analysis (MIUA), Warwick

This paper presents an unsupervised segmentation scheme to isolate pigmented skin lesion from surrounding normal skin. An adaptive mean-shift algorithm combined with maximal similarity based region merging is applied with a colour-spatial feature sp...
