We consider the problem of maximizing the reliability of a series-parallel system given cost and weight constraints on the system. The number of components in each subsystem and th...
This paper presents a novel approach for estimating the shortest
Euclidean distance from a given point to the corresponding
implicit quadric fitting surface. It first estimates t...
A geometric approach is introduced to explain phenomena that can arise with Luce's choice axiom; e.g., differences occur when determining the likelihood of a ranking by start...
A new feature descriptor is presented for object and scene recognition. The new approach, called CDIKP, uniquely combines the scale-invariant feature detection with a robust proje...
Active Shape Model is an efficient way for localizing objects with variable shapes. When ASM is extended to multiview cases, the parameter estimation approaches in previous works ...
