— In this paper we present an implicit time-stepping scheme for multibody systems with intermittent contact by incorporating the contact constraints as a set of complementarity a...

The encoding process of image vector quantization (VQ) is very heavy due to it performing a lot of k-dimensional Euclidean distance computations. In order to speed up VQ encoding,...
Abstract. Mahalanobis distance has already proved its strength in human skin detection using a set of skin values. We present this work that uses automatic skin detection after an ...
— This paper introduces the contextual dissimilarity measure which significantly improves the accuracy of bag-offeatures based image search. Our measure takes into account the l...
In the context of variational image segmentation, we propose a new finite-dimensional implicit surface representation. The key idea is to span a subset of implicit functions with ...
