This paper analyzes the potential advantages and theoretical challenges of “active learning” algorithms. Active learning involves sequential sampling procedures that use infor...
The mean shift algorithm, which is a nonparametric density
estimator for detecting the modes of a distribution on a
Euclidean space, was recently extended to operate on analytic
...
Secure multi-party computing, also called secure function evaluation, has been extensively studied in classical cryptography. We consider the extension of this task to computation...
Current state-of-the-art image-based scene reconstruction
techniques are capable of generating high-fidelity 3D
models when used under controlled capture conditions.
However, th...

Recognizing and localizing specular (or mirror-like) surfaces from a single image is a great challenge to computer vision. Unlike other materials, the appearance of a specular sur...
