In this paper we present a probabilistic framework for tracking regions based on their appearance. We exploit the feature-spatial distribution of a region representing an object a...

Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is an excellent tool for unsupervised parts-based learning, but proves to be ineffective when parts of a whole follow a specific pattern. ...
Parallel programming continues to be difficult, despite substantial and ongoing research aimed at making it tractable. Especially dismaying is the gulf between theory and the pract...
This paper targets the problem of optimal resource allocation in overlay multicast, which poses both theoretical and practical challenges. Theoretically, resource allocation among...
In this paper, we analyze the formation of blocking artifacts as a result of quantization of the discrete cosine transform (DCT) coefficients. These artifacts are known to be the ...
