We propose an algorithm for accurate tracking of (articulated) objects using online update of appearance and shape. The challenge here is to model foreground appearance with histo...
Multi-pixel encoding is an emerging method in visual cryptography for that it can encode more than one pixel for each encoding run. Nevertheless, in fact its encoding efficiency is...
We propose a crossover method to combine complexly overlapping building blocks (BBs). Although there have been several techniques to identify linkage sets of loci o form a BB [4, ...
Atomicity is an important specification that enables programmers to understand atomic blocks of code in a multi-threaded program as if they are sequential. This significantly simp...
Synchronization in distributed systems is expensive because, in general, threads must stall to obtain a lock or to operate on volatile data. Transactional memory, on the other hand...
