Peridynamics (PD) is a continuum theory that employs a nonlocal model to describe material properties. In this context, nonlocal means that continuum points separated by a finite ...

Abstract. Motion estimation is usually based on the brightness constancy assumption. This assumption holds well for rigid objects with a Lambertian surface, but it is less appropri...
Textural appearance of many real word materials is not static but shows progress in time. If such a progress is spatially and temporally homogeneous these materials can be represe...
Abstract. We present a photometric stereo method for non-rigid objects of unknown and spatially varying materials. The prior art uses timemultiplexed illumination but assumes const...
As views in a data warehouse become more complex, the view maintenance process can become very complicated and potentially very inefficient. Storing auxiliary views in the warehou...
