Generalizations of Hedberg’s Theorem (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Kraus, N., Escardó, M., Coquand, T., & Altenkirch, T. (2013). Generalizations of Hedberg’s Theorem. In Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications: 11th International Conference, TLCA 2013, Eindhoven, The Netherlands, June (173-188). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-38946-7_14

As the groupoid interpretation by Hofmann and Streicher shows, uniqueness of identity proofs (UIP) is not provable. Generalizing a theorem by Hedberg, we give new characterizations of types that satisfy UIP. It turns out to be natural in this context... Read More about Generalizations of Hedberg’s Theorem.

300 Faces in-the-Wild Challenge: the first facial landmark localization challenge (2013)
Conference Proceeding

Automatic facial point detection plays arguably the most important role in face analysis. Several methods have been proposed which reported their results on databases of both constrained and unconstrained conditions. Most of these databases provide a...

A semi-automatic methodology for facial landmark annotation (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Sagonas, C., Tzimiropoulos, G., Zafeiriou, S., & Pantic, M. (2013). A semi-automatic methodology for facial landmark annotation.

Developing powerful deformable face models requires massive, annotated face databases on which techniques can be trained, validated and tested. Manual annotation of each facial image in terms of landmarks requires a trained expert and the workload is... Read More about A semi-automatic methodology for facial landmark annotation.
