We describe a new method for performing a nonlinear form of Principal Component Analysis. By the use of integral operator kernel functions, we can e ciently compute principal comp...
—We introduce a class of planar arcs and curves, called tame arcs, which is general enough to describe (parts of) the boundaries of planar real objects. A tame arc can have smoot...
For every string inclusion relation there are two optimization problems: find a longest string included in every string of a given finite language, and find a shortest string in...
Image restoration from degraded images lies at the foundation of image processing, pattern recognition, and computer vision, so it has been extensively studied. A large number of ...
—A matrix A of size m n containing items from a totally ordered universe is termed monotone if, for every i, j, 1 i < j m, the minimum value in row j lies below or to...
