Abstract. Markov and Conditional random fields (CRFs) used in computer vision typically model only local interactions between variables, as this is computationally tractable. In t...
Abstract—Whole-book recognition is a document image analysis strategy that operates on the complete set of a book’s page images using automatic adaptation to improve accuracy. ...
A major challenge for face recognition algorithms lies in the variance faces undergo while changing pose. This problem is typically addressed by building view dependent models bas...
We introduce a novel spatial join operator, the ring-constrained join (RCJ). Given two sets P and Q of spatial points, the result of RCJ consists of pairs p, q (where p P, q Q) ...
An arc-annotated string is a string of characters, called bases, augmented with a set of pairs, called arcs, each connecting two bases. Given arc-annotated strings P and Q the arc-...
