We propose a deterministic method to evaluate the integral of a positive function based on soft-binning functions that smoothly cut the integral into smaller integrals that are ea...
One of the grand challenges of AI is to build systems that learn by reading. The ideal system would construct a rich knowledge base capable of automated reasoning. We have built a...
We present a method for the simultaneous detection and segmentation of objects from static images. We employ lowlevel contour features that enable us to learn the coarse object sh...
Decision-theoretic optimization is becoming a popular tool in the user interface community, but creating accurate cost (or utility) functions has become a bottleneck — in most c...
A novel method of Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC) for the design of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) is presented. As the main limitation of IEC is human fatigue, a...
