We present a novel image operator that seeks to find the value of stroke width for each image pixel, and demonstrate its use on the task of text detection in natural images. The s...
We consider the problem of semantic load shedding for continuous queries containing window joins on multiple data streams and propose a robust approach that is effective with the ...
In this paper, a series of window-based methods is proposed for information retrieval. Compared with traditional tf-idf model, our approaches are based on two new key notions. The ...
Feature misalignment in object detection refers to
the phenomenon that features which re up in some
positive detection windows do not re up in other pos-

In this work we present a new approach to two - dimensional robust spline smoothing. The proposed method is based on M-estimator algorithms but unlike in other M-estimator based i...
