Multiresolution Analysis for Irregular Meshes
International audience; The concept of multiresolution analysis applied to irregular meshes has become more and more important. Previous contributions proposed a variety of methods using simplification and/or subdivision algorithms to build a mesh pyramid. In this paper, we propose a multiresolution analysis framework for irregular meshes with attributes. Our framework is based on simplification and subdivision algorithms to build a mesh pyramid. We introduce a surface relaxation operator that allows to build a non-uniform subdivision for a low computational cost. Furthermore, we generalize the relaxationoperator to attributes such as color, texture, temperature, etc. The attribute analysis…
Multiresolution Analysis for Meshes with Appearance Attributes
International audience; We present a new multiresolution analysis framework for irregular meshes with attributes based on the lifting scheme. We introduce a surface prediction operator to compute the detail coefficients for the geometry and the attributes of the model. Attribute analysis gives appearance information to complete the geometrical analysis of the model. A set of experimental results are given to show the efficiency of our framework. We present two applications to adaptive visual-ization and denoising.
Studies on the Effectiveness of Multispectral Images for Face Recognition: Comparative Studies and New Approaches
In this paper, we investigate face recognition in unconstrained illumination conditions. A twofold contribution is proposed: First, three state of the art algorithms, namely Multiblock Local Binary Pattern (MBLBP), Histogram of Gabor Phase Patterns (HGPP) and Local Gabor Binary Pattern Histogram Sequence (LGBPHS) are challenged against the IRIS-M3 multispectral face data base to evaluate their robustness against high illumination variation. Second, we propose to enhance the Performance of the three mentioned algorithms, which has been drastically decreased because of the non-monotonic illumination variation that distinguishes the IRIS-M3 face database. Instead of the usual braod band images…
