I spent several years addressing different problems in the challenging field of computer vision. I still find this
area one of the most exciting and rewarding. Research in computer vision requires borrowing ideas from many fields and
using some clever engineering to solve real problems.

This is the first paper in dynamic vision.
This presented results that are now commonly used in many practical systems.
This paper though in computer vision, started going towards databases
This paper resulted in creating significant interest in dynamic vision.
This paper resulted in creating significant interest in dynamic vision.
This is the paper that became a very popular paper on range images. Another earlier paper by Besl and Jain influenced many computer vision researchers to look into range images.
This paper was a detailed foundation on edges in scale space.
This paper showed the limitations of the structure from motion approaches popular at that time.
This paper gave rise to interest in textures that result in many flow related applications.
