In this paper an island model is described for the unconstrained Binary Quadratic Problem (BQP), which can be used with up to 2500 binary variables. Our island model uses a master...
Reverse engineering has become a viable technique to create a 3D virtual model of an existing physical object. It enables the reconstruction of body surfaces to create a suitable C...

In the heart of the computer model of visual attention, an interest or saliency map is derived from an input image in a process that encompasses several data combination steps. Whi...
This paper compares two methods for object localization from contours: shape context and chamfer matching of templates. In the light of our experiments, we suggest improvements to...
