We propose an unsupervised, probabilistic method for learning visual feature hierarchies. Starting from local, low-level features computed at interest point locations, the method c...
We present “contact levels of detail” (CLOD), a novel concept for multiresolution collision detection. Given a polyhedral model, our algorithm automatically builds a “dual h...
Computer simulations can be used to teach complicated statistical concepts in linear regression more quickly and effectively than traditional lecture alone. In introductory applie...
