Abstract. Over the last decade, first-order constraints have been efficiently used in the artificial intelligence world to model many kinds of complex problems such as: scheduling,...
Image matting is of great importance in both computer vision and graphics applications. Most existing state-of-the-art techniques rely on large sparse matrices such as the matting ...
Memory size reduction and memory accesses optimization are crucial issues for embedded systems. In the context of affine programs, these two challenges are classically tackled by ...
Realistic animation of soft objects such as cloth is essential for plausible character animation. Many techniques have been proposed for the simulation of soft objects, and most o...
In previous work we introduced a construction to produce multiresolutions from given subdivisions. A portion of that construction required solving bilinear equations using a symbo...
