We present a novel technique, termed attached shadow coding, for estimating surface normals from shadows when the reflectance and lighting conditions are unknown. Our key idea is ...
To exploit the similarity information hidden in the hyperlink structure of the web, this paper introduces algorithms scalable to graphs with billions of vertices on a distributed ...
We propose a method for estimating radiometric response functions from observation of image noise variance, not profile of its distribution. The relationship between radiance inten...

In this paper, we propose a global method for estimating the motion of a camera which films a static scene. Our approach is direct, fast and robust, and deals with adjacent frames...
—Characterizing user churn has become an important topic in studying P2P networks, both in theoretical analysis and system design. Recent work [26] has shown that direct sampling...
