There has been much discussion about the best way to combine the benefits of new optical circuit switching technology with the established packet switched Internet. In this paper,...
We design an algorithm, called the fluid synchronization algorithm (FSA), for the job shop scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the makespan. We round an optimal sol...
The paper presents an overview of financial applications of copulas. Copulas permit to represent joint distribution functions by splitting the marginal behavior, embedded in the ma...
In this paper, we develop a novel method for view-based recognition of human action/activity from videos. By observing just a few frames, we can identify the activity that takes pl...
Decomposing video frames into coherent two-dimensional motion layers is a powerful method for representing videos. Such a representation provides an intermediate description that e...
