A directional spatial relationship to a reference object (e.g., "east of the post office") can be represented by a spatial template. The template partitions the space in...
Recent advancements in model-based reinforcement learning have shown that the dynamics of many structured domains (e.g. DBNs) can be learned with tractable sample complexity, desp...

We present a new method for real-time rendering of objects with complex isotropic BRDFs under distant natural illumination, as specified by an environment map. Our approach is bas...
Image matting is the task of estimating a fore- and background
layer from a single image. To solve this ill posed
problem, an accurate modeling of the scene’s appearance
is ne...
Many existing spectral clustering algorithms share a conventional graph partitioning criterion: normalized cuts (NC). However, one problem with NC is that it poorly captures the g...
