Multi-band modelling of appearance

Multi-band modelling of appearance

Earlier work has demonstrated generative models capable of synthesising near photo-realistic grey-scale images of objects. These models have been augmented with colour information, and recently with edge information. This paper extends the Active Appearance Model framework by modelling the appearance of both derived feature bands and an intensity band. As a special case of featureband augmented...

Illumination Invariant Face Alignment Using Multi-band Active Appearance Model

In this study, we present a new multi-band image representation for improving AAM segmentation accuracy for illumination invariant face alignment. AAM is known to be very sensitive to the illumination variations. We have shown that edges, originating from object boundaries are far less susceptible to illumination changes. Here, we propose a contour selector which mostly collects contours origin...

Realistic Material Appearance Modelling

Physically correct and realistic visual appearance rendering or analysis of material surface visual properties require complex descriptive models capable of modelling material dependence on variable illumination and viewing conditions. While recent advances in computer hardware and virtual modelling are finally allowing the view and illumination dependencies of natural surface materials to be t...
