The empirical curve bounding problem is de ned as follows. Suppose data vectors X Y are presented such that E(Y i]) = f(X i]) where f(x) is an unknown function. The problem is to a...
A skeletal stroke is a kind of general brush stroke for changing the shape of pictures as if by bending, shearing, twisting, while conservating the aspect ratio of selected featur...
In this paper, we present an effective approach for spatiotemporal face recognition from videos using an Extended set of Volume LBP (Local Binary Pattern features) and a boosting s...
Global routing is an important step for physical design. In this paper, we develop a new global router, NTUgr, that contains three major steps: prerouting, initial routing, and enh...
Self-management is a key feature of autonomic systems. This often demands the dynamic reconfiguration of a distributed application. An important issue in the reconfiguration proce...
