Enterprise corpora contain evidence of what employees work on and therefore can be used to automatically find experts on a given topic. We present a general approach for represen...
Markov decision processes (MDPs) with discrete and continuous state and action components can be solved efficiently by hybrid approximate linear programming (HALP). The main idea ...
Cast shadows induced by moving objects often cause serious problems to many vision applications. We present in this paper an online statistical learning approach to model the backg...
In this paper, we present a speaker identification algorithm for a microphone array based on a first-order joint Hidden Markov Model (HMM) where the observations correspond to t...
Foregrounds extracted from the background, which are intended to be used as photorealistic avatars for simulators in a variety of virtual worlds, should satisfy the following four ...
