This paper describes a framework for the estimation of shape from sparse or incomplete range data. It uses a shape representation called blending, which allows for the geometric c...
A MAC protocol specifies how nodes in a sensor network access a shared communication channel. Desired properties of a MAC protocol are: it should be contention-free (avoid collisio...

This paper proposes, an efficient method for text independent writer identification using a codebook. The occurrence histogram of the shapes in the codebook is used to create a fea...
Binarization of n-ary rules is critical for the efficiency of syntactic machine translation decoding. Because the target side of a rule will generally reorder the source side, it ...
