We propose a new method for handwritten word-spotting which does not require prior training or gathering examples for querying. More precisely, a model is trained "on the fly...
We present a model of a `gas of circles', the ensemble of regions in the image domain consisting of an unknown number of circles with approximately fixed radius and short ran...

Normalized Cut is a widely used technique for solving a
variety of problems. Although finding the optimal normalized
cut has proven to be NP-hard, spectral relaxations can
be ap...

This paper considers nonlinear modeling based on a limited amount of experimental data and a simulator built from prior knowledge. The problem of how to best incorporate the data ...
In homing tasks, the goal is often not marked by visible objects but must be inferred from the spatial relation to the visual cues in the surrounding scene. The exact computation o...
