The use of illumination and view dependent textural information is one way to capture the realistic appearance of genuine materials. One example of such data is the bidirectional ...
We are interested in a general alpha matting approach for the simultaneous extraction of multiple image layers; each layer may have disjoint segments for material matting not limi...
We introduce a model class for statistical learning which is based on mixtures of propositional rules. In our mixture model, the weight of a rule is not uniform over the entire ins...
Implicit surfaces in 3D geometric modeling are limited to two manifolds because the corresponding implicit fields are usually defined by real-valued functions which bisect space...
Probabilistic planning problems are typically modeled as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). MDPs, while an otherwise expressive model, allow only for sequential, non-durative action...
