Abstract In this paper, we describe our Question Answering (QA) system called QUANTUM. The goal of QUANTUM is to find the answer to a natural language question in a large document ...
Point-based rendering is a compact and efficient means of displaying complex geometry. Our goal is to enable flexible point-based rendering, permitting local image refinement, req...
—Error concealment restores the visual integrity of image content that has been damaged due to a bad network transmission. Best neighborhood matching (BNM) is an effective image ...
We consider a supervised learning setting in which the main cost of learning is the number of training labels and one can obtain a single label for a bag of examples, indicating o...
Many algorithms in image analysis require a priority queue, a data structure that holds pointers to pixels in the image, and which allows efficiently finding the pixel in the queu...
