We describe novel approaches to multimedia analysis and synthesis problems. We first present the experiential sampling technique which has the ability to focus on the analysis task...
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

The yolk, defined by McKelvey as the smallest ball intersecting all median hyperplanes, is a key concept in the Euclidean spatial model of voting. Koehler conjectured that the yo...
Motion estimation in image sequences is an important step in many computer vision and image processing applications. Several methods for solving this problem have been proposed, b...
We define a process called congealing in which elements of a dataset (images) are brought into correspondence with each other jointly, producing a data-defined model. It is based ...
