A fundamental problem in depth from defocus is the measurement of relative defocus between images. The performance of previously proposed focus operators are inevitably sensitive t...
Abstract. We study invertibility of big n × n matrices. There exists a number of algorithms, especially in mathematical statistics and numerical mathematics, requiring to invert s...
An emerging class of data-intensive applications involve the geographically dispersed extraction of complex scientific information from very large collections of measured or compu...
