This paper presents a fundamental law for parallel performance: it shows that parallel performance is not only limited by sequential code (as suggested by Amdahl’s law) but is a...
Branches that depend directly or indirectly on load instructions are a leading cause of mispredictions by state-of-the-art branch predictors. For a branch of this type, there is a...
Detecting shadows from images can significantly improve the performance of several vision tasks such as object detection and tracking. Recent approaches have mainly used illuminat...
