This paper addresses the problem of efficient maintenance of a materialized skyline view in response to skyline removals. While there has been significant progress on skyline quer...
We describe an approach for exploiting structure in Markov Decision Processes with continuous state variables. At each step of the dynamic programming, the state space is dynamica...

The ability of humans for color constancy, i.e. the ability to correct for color deviation caused by a different illumination, is far beyond computer vision performances: nowadays...
Abstract. We propose a vector representation approach to contour estimation from noisy data. Images are modeled as random elds composed of a set of homogeneous regions contours (bo...
We propose an hybrid and probabilistic classification of image regions belonging to scenes primarily containing natural objects, e.g. sky, trees, etc. as a first step in solving ...
