Teleport messaging for distributed stream programs
In this paper, we develop a new language construct to address one of the pitfalls of parallel programming: precise handling of events across parallel components. The construct, te...

A Convex Method for Locating Regions of Interest with Multi-instance Learning
Abstract. In content-based image retrieval (CBIR) and image screening, it is often desirable to locate the regions of interest (ROI) in the images automatically. This can be accomp...

A Partition-of-Unity Based Algorithm for Implicit Surface Reconstruction Using Belief Propagation
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for the fundamental problem of reconstructing surfaces from a large set of unorganized 3D data points. The local shapes of the surface ar...
