We present a new deterministic sorting algorithm that interleaves the partitioning of a sample sort with merging. Sequentially, it sorts n elements in O(n log n) time cache-oblivi...
Visual codebook based quantization of robust appearance descriptors extracted from local image patches is an effective means of capturing image statistics for texture analysis and...
When building a classifier from clean training data for a particular test environment, knowledge about the environmental noise and channel should be taken into account. We propos...

Recently, there has been an increased focus on modeling uncertainty by distributions. Suppose we wish to compute a function of a stream whose elements are samples drawn independen...
