This paper presents a more efficient way of computing single scattering effects in homogeneous participating media for real-time purposes than the currently popular ray-marching b...
Data exchange deals with inserting data from one database into another database having a different schema. We study and solve a central computational problem of data exchange, nam...
Nearest neighbor query is one of the most important operations in spatial databases and their application domains, e.g., locationbased services, advanced traveler information syst...
Kernel methods provide an efficient mechanism to derive nonlinear algorithms. In classification problems as well as in feature extraction, kernel-based approaches map the original...
We introduce an approach to feature-based object recognition, using maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation under a Markov random field (MRF) model. This approach provides an effici...
