Recognition under illumination variations is a challenging problem. The key is to successfully separate the illumination source from the observed appearance. Once separated, what ...
We present a formal framework for capturing the provenance of data appearing in XQuery views of XML. Building on previous work on relations and their (positive) query languages, w...
In building a face recognition system for real-life scenarios, one usually faces the problem that is the selection of a feature-space and preprocessing methods such as alignment u...
We present new techniques for interactive cinematic lighting design of complex scenes that use procedural shaders. Deep-framebuffers are used to store the geometric and optical in...
Descriptions of reactive systems focus heavily on behavioral aspects, often in terms of scenarios. To cope with the increasing complexity of services provided by these systems, beh...
