Generating a random sampling of program trees with specified function and terminal sets is the initial step of many program evolution systems. I present a theoretical and experim...
Pervasive multimedia devices require accurate video retargeting, especially in connected consumer electronics platforms. In this paper, we present a context assisted spatialtempor...
A compiler optimization is sound if the optimized program that it produces is semantically equivalent to the input program. The proofs of semantic equivalence are usually tedious....
We propose a type and effect system for authentication protocols built upon a tagging scheme that formalizes the intended semantics of ciphertexts. The main result is that the val...
In this work, we address the problem of building recognition across two camera views with large changes in scales and viewpoints. The main idea is to construct a semantically rich...
