Evaluation in visual information retrieval is usually performed by executing test queries and calculating recall and precision based on predefined media collections and ground tru...
In this paper we introduce two new methods for solving binary quadratic problems. While spectral relaxation methods have been the workhorse subroutine for a wide variety of comput...
We present a variational integration of nonlinear shape statistics into a Mumford?Shah based segmentation process. The nonlinear statistics are derived from a set of training silho...
One of the key requirement for Grid infrastructures is the ability to share resources with nontrivial qualities of service. However, resource management in a decentralized infrast...
Among the visual features of multimedia content, shape is of particular interest because humans can often recognize objects solely on the basis of shape. Over the past three decad...
