On the Illumination Invariance of the Level Lines under Directed Light: Application to Change Detection
We analyze the illumination invariance of the level lines of an image. We show that if the scene surface has Lambertian reflectance and the light is directed, then a necessary and...

Clustering for metric and nonmetric distance measures
We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P of size n, our goal is to find a set C of size k such t...

Optimal partitioners and end-case placers for standard-cell layout
We study alternatives to FM-based partitioning in the context of end-case processing for top-down standard-cell placement. The primary motivation is that small partitioning instan...

Proximity Rank Join
We introduce the proximity rank join problem, where we are given a set of relations whose tuples are equipped with a score and a real-valued feature vector. Given a target feature...

Mixed Finite Elements for Variational Surface Modeling
Many problems in geometric modeling can be described using variational formulations that define the smoothness of the shape and its behavior w.r.t. the posed modeling constraints....
