This work achieves an efficient acquisition of scenes and their depths along long streets. A camera is mounted on a vehicle moving along a straight or a mildly curved path and a sa...
Most illuminant estimation algorithms work with the assumption of one specific type of the light source (e.g. point light source or directional light source). This assumption brin...
In this paper we describe and evaluate a Question Answering (QA) system that goes beyond answering factoid questions. Our approach to QA assumes no restrictions on the type of que...
We introduce the notion of a Canonical Tester for a class of properties on distributions, that is, a tester strong and general enough that “a distribution property in the class ...
A common statistical model for paired comparisons is the Bradley-Terry model. This research re-parameterizes the Bradley-Terry model as a single-layer artificial neural network (A...
