Robust and Accurate 3D Head Pose Estimation through 3DMM and Online Head Model Reconstruction

Jean-Marc Odobez, Kenneth Alberto Funes Mora, Yu Yu

Accurate and robust 3D head pose estimation is important for face related analysis. Though high accuracy has been achieved by previous works based on 3D morphable model (3DMM), their performance drops with extreme head poses because such models usually onl ...

Climatic effects of 1950-2050 changes in US anthropogenic aerosols-Part 2: Climate response

Athanasios Nenes

We investigate the climate response to changing US anthropogenic aerosol sources over the 1950-2050 period by using the NASA GISS general circulation model (GCM) and comparing to observed US temperature trends. Time-dependent aerosol distributions are gene ...
