Reversible jump Markov chain Monte Carlo (RJMCMC) is a recent method which makes it possible to construct reversible Markov chain samplers that jump between parameter subspaces of...
We present a multispectral photometric stereo method for capturing geometry of deforming surfaces. A novel photometric calibration technique allows calibration of scenes containin...
Under certain conditions on the integrand, quasi-Monte Carlo methods for estimating integrals (expectations) converge faster asymptotically than Monte Carlo methods. Motivated by ...

We present a novel framework for answering complex questions that relies on question decomposition. Complex questions are decomposed by a procedure that operates on a Markov chain...

Hidden markov model (HMM) is frequently used for Pinyin-toChinese conversion. But it only captures the dependency with the preceding character. Higher order markov models can brin...
