When controlling dynamic systems, such as mobile robots in uncertain environments, there is a trade off between risk and reward. For example, a race car can turn a corner faster b...
By optimizing data layout at run-time, we can potentially enhance the performance of caches by actively creating spatial locality, facilitating prefetching, and avoiding cache con...
Abstract--In the design of distributed quantization systems one inevitably confronts two types of constraints--those imposed by a distributed system's structure and those impo...
We introduce billboard clouds – a new approach for extreme simplification in the context of real-time rendering. 3D models are simplified onto a set of planes with texture and...
We address the problem of reconstructing 3D face models from large unstructured photo collections, e.g., obtained by Google image search or from personal photo collections in iPho...
