Abstract. This paper studies a statistical skin-color model and its adaptation. It is revealed that 1 human skin colors cluster in a small region in a color space; 2 the variance o...
We present a class of nonlinear adaptive image restoration filters which may be steered to preserve sharp edges and contrasts in the restorations. From a theoretical point of view ...
This paper addresses the design and implementation of an adaptive document version management scheme. Existing schemes typically assume: (i) a priori expectations for how versions ...
A fundamental aspect of many evolutionary approaches to synthesis of complex systems is the need to compose atomic elements into useful higher-level building blocks. However, the ...
Abstract. We present a new reinforcement learning approach for deterministic continuous control problems in environments with unknown, arbitrary reward functions. The difficulty of...
