While guarded evaluation has proven an effective energy saving technique in arithmetic circuits, good methodologies do not exist for determining when and how to guard for maximal ...
We show how to extract a contour line (or isosurface) from quadratic elements—specifically from quadratic triangles and tetrahedra. We also devise how to transform the resultin...

We present a new discretization for the physics-based animation of developable surfaces. Constrained to not deform at all in-plane but free to bend out-of-plane, these are an exce...
Abstract. The estimation of human age from face images is an interesting problem in computer vision. We proposed a general distance metric learning scheme for regression problems, ...
This paper proposes an alternative paradigm for building affective competencies in embodied conversational agents (ECAs). The key feature of this approach -- and the reason for ref...
