Statistical shape-and-texture appearance models employ image metamorphosis to form a rich, compact representation of object appearance. They achieve their efficiency by decomposin...
Proximal bundle methods have been shown to be highly successful optimization methods for unconstrained convex problems with discontinuous first derivatives. This naturally leads ...
Local aspects of Web search -- associating Web content and queries with geography -- is a topic of growing interest. However, the underlying question of how spatial variation is m...

In this paper, we consider the problem of analysing the shape of an object defined by polynomial equations in a domain. We describe regularity criteria which allow us to determine...
Determining physical location of indoor objects is one of the key issues in development of context-aware applications in ubiquitous computing environment. This is mainly because c...
