In a manufacturing environment it is often necessary to perform a manual inventory of finished goods and raw materials. These raw materials might be wood, plastic or metal and oft...
We describe approximate digital implementations of two new mathematical transforms, namely, the ridgelet transform [3] and the curvelet transform [7, 6]. Our implementations offer...
We present approximation and online algorithms for a number of problems of pricing items for sale so as to maximize seller’s revenue in an unlimited supply setting. Our first r...
Bag-of-features (BoF) deriving from local keypoints has recently appeared promising for object and scene classification. Whether BoF can naturally survive the challenges such as ...
