This paper presents a new, scalable, single pass algorithm for computing subsurface scattering using the diffusion approximation. Instead of pre-computing a globally conservative ...
Large-scale 3D reconstruction has recently received much attention from the computer vision community. Bundle adjustment is a key component of 3D reconstruction problems. However,...
In this paper, we explore the possibility of transforming queries with minimum and maximum predicates into equivalent queries that can be computed more efficiently. The main contr...
We propose a region-based method to extract semantic foreground regions from color video sequences with static backgrounds. First, we introduce a new distance measure for backgrou...
Scientists working in eScience environments often use workflows to carry out their computations. Since the workflows evolve as the research itself evolves, these workflows can be ...
