Markerless motion capture would permit the study of human biomechanics in environments
where marker-based systems are impractical, eg outdoors or underwater. The visual hull …

Purpose: It is essential to fabricate a best-fit three-dimensional (3D) facial prosthesis model
capable of facial expressions. In order for the facial prosthesis to remain in position …

This paper presents a new method to increase the quality of 3D video, a new media
developed to represent 3D objects in motion. This representation is obtained from multi-view …

Several proposals have been made to public-key-enable various stages of the secret-key-
based Kerberos network authentication protocol. The computational requirements of public …

We propose a method for estimating the pose of a human body using its approximate 3D
volume (visual hull) obtained in real time from synchronized videos. Our method can cope …

Nowadays, increasing performance of computing hardware makes it feasible to simulate
ever more realistic humans even in real-time applications for the end-user. To fully capitalize …

We are developing an archive system that can preserve Japanese traditional dramatic arts,
such as" Noh", in the form of dynamic 3D models. Dynamic 3D models are models that are …

Recent scandals have stressed the need for information sharing among companies and
governments. The sharing of information is not easy as companies want to keep their …

We propose a real-time method for simultaneously refining the reconstructed volume of a
human body with loose-fitting clothing and identifying body-parts in it. Time-series volumes …

This paper proposes a method for reconstructing a smooth and accurate 3D surface. Recent
machine vision techniques can reconstruct accurate 3D points and normals of an object. The …
