We are interested in a general alpha matting approach for the simultaneous extraction of multiple image layers; each layer may have disjoint segments for material matting not limi...
We consider the problem of learning a ranking function that maximizes a generalization of the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney statistic on the training data. Relying on an -accurate approxim...

We present a generalized subgraph preconditioning (GSP) technique to solve large-scale bundle adjustment problems efficiently. In contrast with previous work which uses either di...
A comparative study of parallel metaheuristics executed in grid environments is proposed, having as case study a genetic algorithm, a simulated annealing algorithm and a random se...
An implementation of a parallel ScaLAPACK-style solver for the general Sylvester equation, op(A)X −Xop(B) = C, where op(A) denotes A or its transpose AT , is presented. The paral...
