This paper introduces spherical matching to estimate dense temporal correspondence of non-rigid surfaces with genus-zero topology. The spherical domain gives a consistent 1D parameterization of non-rigid surfaces for matching. Non-rigid 3D surface correspondence is formulated as the recovery of a bijective mapping between two surfaces in the 2D domain. Formulating matching as a 2D bijection guarantees a continuous one-to-one surface correspondence without overfolding. This overcomes limitations of direct estimation of non-rigid surface correspondence in the 3D domain. A multiple resolution coarse-to-fine algorithm is introduced to robustly estimate the dense correspondence which minimizes the disparity in shape and appearance between two surfaces. Spherical matching is applied to derive the temporal correspondence between non-rigid surfaces reconstructed at successive frames from multiple view video sequences of people. Dense surface correspondence is recovered across complete motion sequences for both textured and uniform regions, without the requirement for a prior model of human shape or kinematics structure for tracking.
