for the major phenomena of object recognition: If an arrangement of two or three geons can be recovered from the input, objects can be quickly recognized even when they are occluded, novel, rotated in depth, or extensively degraded. The results from experiments on the perception of briefly presented pictures

Frames from a voice-driven animation, computed from a single baby picture and an adult model of facial control. Note the changes in upper facial expression. See figures 5, 6 and 7 for more examples of predicted mouth shapes. We introduce a method for predicting a control signal from another related

-list” blogs over the period of two months preceding the U.S. Presidential Election of 2004, to study how often they referred to one another and to quantify the overlap in the topics they discussed, both within the liberal and conservative communities, and also across communities. We also study a single day

We describe an interactive, computer-assisted framework for combining parts of a set of photographs into a single composite picture, a process we call "digital photomontage." Our framework makes use of two techniques primarily: graph-cut optimization, to choose good seams within

range than any single picture. The dark pictures show us highlight details of the scene that would be washed out in a "properly exposed" picture, while the light pictures show us some shadow detail that would also not appear in a "properly exposed" picture. We propose a means

formulation. ;m explicit polygonal model of the cortical manifold is first constructed :,s follows: (1) slice data in three onhogon;,l pJ:,ncs of section (needle-shaped voxels) are combined with a linear aleblurring technique to make a single high.resolution 3-D image (cubic voxels), (2) the image

A new method called TIP (Tour Into the Picture) is presented for easily making animations from one 2D picture or photograph of a scene. In TIP, animation is created from the viewpoint of a camera which can be three-dimensionally "walked or flownthrough" the 2D picture

syndrome (HLHS) and tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). In most cases of CHD the genetic origin remains largely unknown, though the complexity of the clinical picture strongly argues against a dysregulation which can be at-tributed to a single candidate gene but rather suggests a multifaceted polygenetic origin

at various levels of the hierarchy are cached for reuse in subsequent frames. A cached image is reused by texture-mapping it onto a single quadrilateral that is drawn instead of the geometry contained in the corresponding node. Visual artifacts are kept under control by using an error metric that quantifies

, without attempting to provide a complete account of all the studies done. We focus on the activity of single neurons studied by neurophysiological techniques in behaving animals, in particular monkeys, and emphasize the formative role of behavioral theories, such as animal learning theory
