The number of noncrossing partitions of {1, 2, . . . , n} with fixed block sizes has a simple closed form, given by Kreweras, and coincides with the corresponding number for nonne...
We first revisit a problem in the literature of genetic algorithms: arranging numbers into groups whose summed weights are as nearly equal as possible. We provide a new genetic al...
Object detection in unconstrained images is an important image understanding problem with many potential applications. There has been little success in creating a single algorithm...
We present a theoretical analysis for characterizing the shadows cast by a point light source given its relative position to the camera. In particular, we analyze the epipolar geo...

The notion of a virtual sensor for optimal 3D reconstruction is introduced. Instead of planar perspective images that collect many rays at a fixed viewpoint, omnivergent cameras c...
