We develop a novel approach to the semantic analysis of short text segments and demonstrate its utility on a large corpus of Web search queries. Extracting meaning from short text...
Visual Hull (VH) construction from silhouette images is a popular method of shape estimation. The method, also known as Shape-From-Silhouette (SFS), is used in many applications s...
We present a novel method for inferring three-dimensional shape from a collection of defocused images. It is based on the observation that defocused images are the null-space of ce...
This paper proposes a parameterized algorithm for aligning two protein structures, in the case where one protein structure is represented by a contact map graph and the other by a ...
We give a simple framework which is an alternative to the celebrated and widely used shifting strategy of Hochbaum and Maass [J. ACM, 1985] which has yielded efficient algorithms ...
