The temporal segmentation of a video into shots is a fundamental prerequisite for video retrieval. There are two types of shot boundaries: abrupt shot changes (“cuts”) and grad...
Recognizing speech, gestures, and visual features are important interface capabilities for embedded mobile systems. Perception algorithms have many traits in common with more conv...
ed Abstract We present two heuristic mesh-partitioning methods, both of which build on the multiple ant-colony algorithm in order to improve the quality of the mesh partitions. The...
We present a novel message passing algorithm for approximating the MAP problem in graphical models. The algorithm is similar in structure to max-product but unlike max-product it ...
We investigate fully parallel Newton-Krylov-Schwarz (NKS) algorithms for solving the large sparse nonlinear systems of equations arising from the finite element discretization of ...
