—We study the problem of approximating a 3D solid with a union of overlapping spheres. In comparison with a stateof-the-art approach, our method offers more than an order of magn...
Changing resolution of images is a common operation. It is also common to use simple, i.e., small interpolation kernels satisfying some ”smoothness” qualities that are determi...
We consider some issues in optimizing persistent programming languages. In particular, we show how to express optimizations of object residency checks in strongly typed persistent...
Many large-scale parallel programs follow a bulk synchronous parallel (BSP) structure with distinct computation and communication phases. Although the communication phase in such ...

We propose a multi-sensor affect recognition system and evaluate it on the challenging task of classifying interest (or disinterest) in children trying to solve an educational pu...
