Generative topographic mapping (GTM) is a statistical model to extract a hidden smooth manifold from data, like the self-organizing map (SOM). Although a deterministic search algo...
We present an algorithm to overcome the local maxima problem in estimating the parameters of mixture models. It combines existing approaches from both EM and a robust fitting algo...
We propose a new strategy for raytracing complex scenes without aliasing artifacts. The algorithm intersects anisotropic ray cones with prefiltered surface sample points from a mu...
Part I of this paper showed that the hidden subgroup problem over the symmetric group--including the special case relevant to Graph Isomorphism--cannot be efficiently solved by st...

This article discusses an enhanced polygonization algorithm for variational implicit surfaces. The polygonization scheme is a simple hierarchical adaptation of the Marching Cubes ...
