Approximate queries on a collection of strings are important in many applications such as record linkage, spell checking, and Web search, where inconsistencies and errors exist in...
Determining the correspondence of image patches is one of the most important problems in Computer Vision. When the intensity space is variant due to several factors such as the ca...
If-conversion is a compiler technique that reduces the misprediction penalties caused by hard-to-predict branches, transforming control dependencies into data dependencies. Althou...
We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...
2-D face recognition in the presence of large pose variations presents a significant challenge. When comparing a frontal image of a face to a near profile image, one must cope w...
