This paper presents a method for matching closed, 2D shapes (2D object silhouettes) that are represented as an ordered collection of shape contexts [1]. Matching is performed using...
Abstract. This paper describes a novel approach to recovering a parametric deformation that optimally registers one image to another. The method proceeds by constructing a global c...
Twig pattern matching (TPM) is the core operation of XML query processing. Existing approaches rely on either efficient data structures or novel labeling/indexing schemes to reduce...
This paper introduces Dafo, a new multi-agent framework for evolutionary optimization relying on a competitive coevolutionary genetic algorithm, aka LCGA (Loosely Coupled Genetic A...
If the model of free-form queries, which has proved successful for HTML based search on the Web, is made available for Grid services, it will serve as a powerful tool for scientis...
