Abstract—Diffusions are useful for image processing and computer vision because they provide a convenient way of smoothing noisy data, analyzing images at multiple scales, and en...
We develop a method for predicting query performance by computing the relative entropy between a query language model and the corresponding collection language model. The resultin...
Being able to model contention for software resources (e.g., a critical section or database lock) is paramount to building performance models that capture all aspects of the delay...
— This paper proposes two hierarchical schemes for learning, one for clustering and the other for classification problems. Both schemes can be implemented on a fuzzy lattice neu...
Circular features have been commonly used in numerous computer vision application areas for 3-D pose estimation. However, the estimation of such a feature’s pose from 2-D image ...
