Several powerful forces are gathering to make fundamental and irrevocable changes to the century-old grid. The nextgeneration grid, often called the `smart grid,' will featur...
Given a single outdoor image, we present a method for estimating the likely illumination conditions of the scene. In particular, we compute the probability distribution over the su...
