A major cost in executing queries in a distributed database system is the data transfer cost incurred in transferring relations (fragments) accessed by a query from different sites...
We present a 3-D shape-based object recognition system for simultaneous recognition of multiple objects in scenes containing clutter and occlusion. Recognition is based on matchin...
In this paper, we propose a novel variational framework for the reconstruction of dynamic objects from sparse and noisy tomographic data. Using an object-based scene model, we dev...
—This paper presents a new method for extracting object edges from range images obtained by a 3D range imaging sensor⎯the SwissRanger SR-3000. In range image preprocessing stag...
We consider clustering situations in which the pairwise affinity between data points depends on a latent ”context” variable. For example, when clustering features arising fro...
