In this paper we present a novel 3D surface and image reconstruction method based on the off-axis aperture camera. The key idea is to change the size or the 3-D location of the ap...
Markov random field models provide a robust formulation of low-level vision problems. Among the problems, stereo vision remains the most investigated field. The belief propagation...
This paper presents a novel application of Alternating Structure Optimization (ASO) to the task of Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) of noun predicates in NomBank. ASO is a recently pr...
Estimating the result size of a join is an important query optimization problem as it determines the choice of a good query evaluation strategy. Yet, there are few efficient techni...
Opening up large amounts of loosely structured information for easy access and use is a complex problem. This paper describes two systems that address different aspects of the pro...
