For non-rigid registration, the objects in medical images are usually treated as a single deformable body with homogeneous stiffness distribution. However, this assumption is inval...
— Since the advent of distributed computer systems an active field of research has been the investigation of scheduling strategies for parallel applications. The common approach...
Experience has shown that the power consumption of sensors and other wireless computational devices is often dominated by their communication patterns. We present a practical real...
Competitive parallel execution (CPE) is a simple yet attractive technique to improve the performance of sequential programs on multi-core and multi-processor systems. A sequential...
Detecting shadows from images can significantly improve the performance of several vision tasks such as object detection and tracking. Recent approaches have mainly used illuminat...
