Abstract Competition and cooperation can boost the performance of a combinatorial search process. Both can be implemented with a portfolio of algorithms which run in parallel, give...
The goal of this work is to recover human body configurations from static images. Without assuming a priori knowledge of scale, pose or appearance, this problem is extremely chall...
Abstract? Fixed-point DSPs are a class of embedded processors with highly irregular architectures. This irregularity makes it difficult to generate high-quality machine code from p...
In this paper, we develop a new language construct to address one of the pitfalls of parallel programming: precise handling of events across parallel components. The construct, te...
