We propose Shotgun, a parallel coordinate descent algorithm for minimizing L1regularized losses. Though coordinate descent seems inherently sequential, we prove convergence bounds...

There exist practical bit-parallel algorithms for several types of pair-wise string processing, such as longest common subsequence computation or approximate string matching. The b...
In this paper we propose a new model for gripping parts with an industrial parallel-jaw gripper. In contrast to many previous models, we use two grip points and define candidate g...

Abstract. The edit distance between strings A and B is defined as the minimum number of edit operations needed in converting A into B or vice versa. Typically the allowed edit oper...
Realtime image processing provides a general framework for robust mediated reality problems. This paper presents a realtime mediated reality system that is built upon realtime ima...
