We present a novel method to robustly and efficiently detect moving object, even under the complexity background, such as illumination changes, long shadows etc. This work is disti...
Optimizing queries that involve operations on spatial data requires estimating the selectivity and cost of these operations. In this paper, we focus on estimating the cost of spat...
We introduce a set of techniques that are used together to produce realistic-looking animations of burning objects. These include a new method for simulating spreading on polygona...
Reputation systems facilitate cooperation in open environments. Centrality-based reputation systems use centrality measures to rank individuals, i.e., compute their reputation bas...
—The ability to measure and model water currents is essential to ensure the safety and correct operations of many water surface activities. For example, the complex currents in h...
