Abstract--An audio fingerprint is a compact yet very robust representation of the perceptually relevant parts of an audio signal. It can be used for content-based audio identificat...
Both texture maps and procedural shaders suffer from rendering artifacts during minification. Unlike texture maps, there exist no good automatic method to antialias procedural shad...
We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...
Abstract. A new, exemplar-based, probabilistic paradigm for visual tracking is presented. Probabilistic mechanisms are attractive because they handle fusion of information, especia...
Ears are an emergent biometric accruing application advantages including no requirement for subject contact and acquisition without demand. To recognize a subject's ear, we a...
