Abstract: This paper introduces six ways for handling a chain of lexicographic ordering constraint between the origins of identical orthotopes (e.g., rectangles, boxes, hyper-recta...
Although the least median of squares (LMedS) method and the least trimmed squares (LTS) method are said to have a high breakdown point (50%), they can break down at unexpectedly l...
This paper examines the notion of symmetry in Markov decision processes (MDPs). We define symmetry for an MDP and show how it can be exploited for more effective learning in singl...
This paper tackles a particular shape matching problem: given a data base of shapes (described as triangular meshes), we search for all shapes which describe a human. We do so by a...
