Previous works on range image segmentation concentrate on surface patches that can be well represented by certain mathematical functions. In this paper we consider the more qualit...
Inference problems in graphical models can be represented as a constrained optimization of a free energy function. It is known that when the Bethe free energy is used, the fixedpo...
We present an algorithm to construct a tight bounding polyhedron for a recursive procedural model. We first use an iterated function system (IFS) to represent the extent of the p...
Let F be a subset of the n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn represented in terms of a compact convex subset C0 and a set PF of nitely or in nitely many quadratic functions on Rn such...
The decomposition method is currently one of the major methods for solving the convex quadratic optimization problems being associated with support vector machines. For a special c...
