A solid noise is a function that defines a random value at each point in space. Solid noises have immediate and powerful applications in surface texturing, stochastic modeling, a...
—Pocket Switched Networks take advantage of social contacts to opportunistically create data paths over time. This work employs empirical traces to examine the effect of the huma...

We present a new Monte Carlo method for solving the light transport problem, inspired by the Metropolis sampling method in computational physics. To render an image, we generate a...
We compare the practical performance of several recently proposed algorithms for active learning in the online classification setting. We consider two active learning algorithms (...
Particle filters encode a time-evolving probability density by maintaining a random sample from it. Level sets represent closed curves as zero crossings of functions of two variab...
