We study the problem of estimating the average of a Lipschitz continuous function f defined over a metric space, by querying f at only a single point. More specifically, we explore...
This paper presents a novel two-phase stereo matching algorithm using the random walks framework. At first, a set of reliable matching pixels is extracted with prior matrices de...
Given a set of n points in d-dimensional Euclidean space, S ⊂ Ed , and a query point q ∈ Ed , we wish to determine the nearest neighbor of q, that is, the point of S whose Euc...
Quadratic Programming (QP) is the well-studied problem of maximizing over {−1, 1} values the quadratic form i=j aijxixj. QP captures many known combinatorial optimization proble...
Feature selection is a critical component of many pattern recognition applications. There are two distinct mechanisms for feature selection, namely the wrapper method and the filt...
