This paper presents a multi-scale generative model for representing animate shapes and extracting meaningful parts of objects. The model assumes that animate shapes (2D simple clo...
Comparing systems using measurement, simulation, and queueing models. Common mistakes and how to avoid them, selection of techniques and metrics, art of data presentation, summariz...
The exponential distribution is a key distribution in many event-driven Monte-Carlo simulations, where it is used to model the time between random events in the system. This paper...
A nonce is a cryptographic input value which must never repeat within a given context. Nonces are important for the security of many cryptographic building blocks, such as stream c...
Markov random fields (MRFs) are popular and generic probabilistic models of prior knowledge in low-level vision. Yet their generative properties are rarely examined, while applica...
