We consider the problem of learning a similarity function from a set of positive equivalence constraints, i.e. 'similar' point pairs. We define the similarity in informa...
Abstract—Performance and power issues are becoming increasingly important in the design of large cluster based multitier data centers for supporting a multitude of services. Desi...
In this paper, we address the problem of photometric invariance in multispectral imaging making use of an optimisation approach based upon the dichromatic model. In this manner, w...
Resolving local ambiguities is an important issue for shape from shading (SFS). Pixel ambiguities of SFS can be eliminated by propagation approaches. However, patch ambiguities st...
The fundamental operation of dominance testing, i.e., determining if one alternative is preferred to another, is in general very hard for methods of reasoning with qualitative cond...
