Intuitively, learning should be easier when the data points lie on a low-dimensional submanifold of the input space. Recently there has been a growing interest in algorithms that ...
In this paper we present a novel approach for estimating the selectivity of XML twig queries. Such a technique is useful for approximate query answering as well as for determining...
This paper describes a new method for estimating the illumination distribution of a real scene from a radiance distribution inside shadows cast by an object in the scene. First, t...
In this paper we address the problem of human body pose estimation from still images. A multi-view set of images of a person sitting at a table is acquired and the pose estimated....
This paper presents fast and reliable condition estimates for the roots of a real polynomial based on the method of statistical condition estimation (SCE) by Kenney and Laub. Using...
