ECCV 2018 Tutorial
Functional Maps
A Flexible Representation for Learning and Computing Correspondence
Course overview
This course will introduce the audience to the techniques for learning, computing and processing correspondences between shapes, understood in a broad sense as domain or signal geometry, proximity or connectivity (e.g. images, point clouds, meshes or graphs) based on the functional map representation. We will provide the mathematical background, computational methods and various applications of this framework in computer vision and machine learning problems.
Intended audience
This course is intended for students, researchers, and practitioners in computer vision / pattern recognition / machine learning dealing with problems related to map inference, information transport and correspondence between and across geometric datasets (e.g., flat images, low- and high-dimensional pointclouds, polygonal meshes, volumetric images, graphs).
