Scalability and extended lifetime are two critical design goals of any large scale wireless sensor network. A two-tiered network model has been proposed recently for this purpose....
The overall aim of this study is to show that there is a critical interface between the lot sizing and tool management decisions, and these two problems cannot be viewed in isolat...
—A matrix A of size m n containing items from a totally ordered universe is termed monotone if, for every i, j, 1 i < j m, the minimum value in row j lies below or to...
We consider a class of region-based energies for image
segmentation and inpainting which combine region integrals
with curvature regularity of the region boundary. To
minimize s...
This paper addresses the problem of shadow extraction from a single image of a complex natural scene. No simplifying assumption on the camera and the light source other than the L...
