In this paper we show the power of sampling techniques in designing efficient distributed algorithms. In particular, we show that using sampling techniques, on some networks, sele...
While Kolmogorov complexity is the accepted absolute measure of information content of an individual finite object, a similarly absolute notion is needed for the relation between a...
Apart from visualization tasks, three-dimensional (3D) data management features are not or only hardly available in current spatial database systems and Geographic Information Sys...
The interaction of an autonomous mobile robot with the real world critically depends on the robots morphology and on its environment. Building a model of these aspects is extremel...
Algorithms for discrete energy minimization play a fundamental role for low-level vision. Known techniques include graph cuts, belief propagation (BP) and recently introduced tree-...
