—We introduce a simple image descriptor referred to as the image signature. We show, within the theoretical framework of sparse signal mixing, that this quantity spatially approx...
A Shinro puzzle is a type of deductive reasoning puzzle that originated in Japanese periodicals. To solve the puzzle, one must locate twelve hidden stones on an 8x8 grid using only...
We present a fast, simple location recognition and image localization method that leverages feature correspondence and geometry estimated from large Internet photo collections. Suc...
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...
In this paper, we present a BPM (Bézier Patch Mapping) algorithm which generates a strictly non-self-overlapping structured quadrilateral grid in a given four-sided planar region...
