This paper presents a complete solution to estimating a scene’s 3D geometry and appearance from multiple 2D images by using a statistical inverse ray tracing method. Instead of ...
contexts such as construction of abstractions, speed may be favored over completeness, so that undecidable theories (e.g., nonlinear integer arithmetic) and those whose decision pr...
Clustering is ill-defined. Unlike supervised learning where labels lead to crisp performance criteria such as accuracy and squared error, clustering quality depends on how the cl...
