The problem of tracking curves in dense visual clutter is challenging. Kalman filtering is inadequate because it is based on Gaussian densities which, being unimodal, cannot repre...
We prove that for any real-valued matrix X ∈ Rm×n , and positive integers r k, there is a subset of r columns of X such that projecting X onto their span gives a r+1 r−k+1 -a...
This paper presents a new keypoint-based approach to nearduplicate images detection. It consists of three steps. Firstly, the keypoints of images are extracted and then matched. S...
Abstract—Traffic monitoring and estimation of flow parameters in high speed routers have recently become challenging as the Internet grew in both scale and complexity. In this ...
Abstract—It may not be feasible for sensor networks monitoring nature and inaccessible geographical regions to include powered sinks with Internet connections. We consider the sc...
