The high dimensionality of the BRDF makes it difficult to use measured data for hardware rendering. Common solutions to overcome this problem include expressing a BRDF as a sum o...
We consider Kasteleyn and Kasteleyn-Percus matrices, which arise in enumerating matchings of planar graphs, up to matrix operations on their rows and columns. If such a matrix is ...
Huber's M-estimation technique is applied to a block-angular regression problem, which may arise from some applications. A recursive, modified Newton approach to computing th...
This work presents a kernel method for clustering the nodes of a weighted, undirected, graph. The algorithm is based on a two-step procedure. First, the sigmoid commute-time kernel...
— We present a simple, intuitive argument based on “invariant imbedding” in the spirit of dynamic programming to derive a stagewise second-order backpropagation (BP) algorith...
