Abstract--We propose a new Consistent Weighted Sampling method, where the probability of drawing identical samples for a pair of inputs is equal to their Jaccard similarity. Our me...
The highest fidelity representations of realistic real-world materials currently used comprise Bidirectional Texture Functions (BTF). The BTF is a six dimensional function dependi...
Wavelet-based methods have proven their efficiency for the visualization at different levels of detail, progressive transmission, and compression of large data sets. The required...
We address the problem of improving the efficiency of natural language text input under degraded conditions (for instance, on mobile computing devices or by disabled users), by ta...
Hierarchical clustering methods are widely used in various scientific domains such as molecular biology, medicine, economy, etc. Despite the maturity of the research field of hie...
