Calculation of object similarity, for example through a distance function, is a common part of data mining and machine learning algorithms. This calculation is crucial for efficie...
Acquiring and representing the 4D space of rays in the world (the light field) is important for many computer vision and graphics applications. Yet, light field acquisition is c...
Mergers are procedures that, with the aid of a short random string, transform k (possibly dependent) random sources into a single random source, in a way that ensures that if one ...
Despite its usefulness in many applications, the medial axis transform (MAT) is very sensitive to the change of the boundary in the sense that, even if a shape is perturbed only s...
—Cloud Computing has great potential of providing robust computational power to the society at reduced cost. It enables customers with limited computational resources to outsourc...
