— Many problems in computer vision such as pose recovery and structure estimation are formulated as a minimization process. These problems vary in the use of image measurements d...
P2P systems are increasingly used to discover and share various data between users. The performance of a P2P based information retrieval system is determined by the efficiency of...
Nearest Neighbor (NN) retrieval is a crucial tool of many computer vision tasks. Since the brute-force naive search is too time consuming for most applications, several tailored d...
The problem of simultaneous feature extraction and selection, for classifier design, is considered. A new framework is proposed, based on boosting algorithms that can either 1) s...
In many economic settings, convex figures on the plane are for sale. For example, one might want to sell advertising space on a newspaper page. Selfish agents must be motivated ...
