In this paper we introduce the DCT-mod2 facial feature extraction technique which utilizes polynomial coefficients derived from 2-D DCT coefficients of spatially neighbouring bloc...
We present a new fast method of modeling 3-D objects of arbitrary topology. The Level Set Methods have been used by many researchers to recover 3-D shapes of arbitrary topology. H...
This paper presents the design of a novel system architecture, Virtual Service Grid (VSG), for delivering high performance network services. The VSG is based on the concept of the...
We define general algebraic frameworks for shortest-distance problems based on the structure of semirings. We give a generic algorithm for finding single-source shortest distances...
Fractal image encoding is a computationally intensive method of compression due to its need to find the best match between image sub-blocks by repeatedly searching a large virtual...
