We present an algorithm that extracts curves from a set of edgels within a specific class in a decreasing order of their ``length''. The algorithm inherits the perceptual...
In video surveillance, the sizes of face images are very small. However, few works have been done to investigate scalerobust face recognition. Our experiments on appearancebased m...
An important primitive in the hardware implementations of linear DSP transforms is a circuit that can multiply an input value by one of several different preset constants. We prop...
Policy evaluation is a critical step in the approximate solution of large Markov decision processes (MDPs), typically requiring O(|S|3 ) to directly solve the Bellman system of |S...
We present a new data structure that facilitates approximate nearest neighbor searches on a dynamic set of points in a metric space that has a bounded doubling dimension. Our data...
