In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...
This paper presents a method of parameterization for online freehand drawing objects based on a piecewise cubic Bezier curve approximation. The target is to represent sketches in a...
Existing methods for segmentation by edgel linking are based on heuristics and give no guarantee for a topologically correct result. In this paper, we propose an edgel linking algo...
In this paper we consider stochastic programming problems where the objective function is given as an expected value of a convex piecewise linear random function. With an optimal s...

— Grasping is a central issue of various robot applications, especially when unknown objects have to be manipulated by the system. In earlier work, we have shown the efficiency ...
