Computer-vision attention processes allocate computational resources to different parts of visual input and can lead to faster object recognition and image analysis. This paper p...
We investigate the extent to which price updates can increase the revenue of a seller with little prior information on demand. We study prior-free revenue maximization for a selle...
This paper presents a complete algorithm for the evaluation and control of error in radiosity calculations. Providing such control is both extremely important for industrial appli...
