We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...
A new geometry-based finite difference method for a fast and reliable detection of perceptually salient curvature extrema on surfaces approximated by dense triangle meshes is pro...

Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT)[1][2] and chip multiprocessors (CMP) processors [3] have emerged as the mainstream computing platform in major market segments, including PC, serv...
This paper presents a hardware-optimized variant of the well-known Gaussian elimination over GF(2) and its highly efficient implementation. The proposed hardware architecture, we...
We propose a simplified and practical computational technique for estimating directional lighting in uncalibrated images of faces in frontal pose. We show that this inverse probl...
