Demand in the consumer market for graphics hardware that accelerates rendering of 3D images has resulted in commodity devices capable of astonishing levels of performance. These re...
We consider principal component analysis (PCA) in decomposable Gaussian graphical models. We exploit the prior information in these models in order to distribute its computation. ...
Gesture recognition is a difficult task in computer vision due to the numerous degrees of freedom of a human hand. Fortunately, human gesture covers only a small part of the theor...
