Memory-based learning for visual odometry
Abstract— We present and examine a technique for estimating the ego-motion of a mobile robot using memory-based learning and a monocular camera. Unlike other approaches that rely...

On the Hardness and Smoothed Complexity of Quasi-Concave Minimization
In this paper, we resolve the smoothed and approximative complexity of low-rank quasi-concave minimization, providing both upper and lower bounds. As an upper bound, we provide th...

Probabilistic matching and resemblance evaluation of shapes in trademark images
We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...

Multiperspective Modeling and Rendering Using General Linear Cameras
We present a General Linear Camera (GLC) model that unifies many previous camera models into a single representation. The GLC model is capable of describing all perspective (pinhol...

A fast k-means implementation using coresets
In this paper we develop an efficient implementation for a k-means clustering algorithm. The novel feature of our algorithm is that it uses coresets to speed up the algorithm. A ...
