— Simulated Evolution (SimE) is a sound stochastic approximation algorithm based on the principles of adaptation. If properly engineered it is possible for SimE to reach nearopti...
We propose a new topological data structure for representing a set of polygonal curves embedded in a meshed surface. In this embedding, the vertices of the curve do not necessaril...
Abstract. Given an image, digital matting consists in extracting a foreground element from the background. Standard methods are initialized with a trimap, a partition of the image ...
Principal curvatures and principal directions are fundamental local geometric properties. They are well defined on smooth surfaces. However, due to the nature as higher order di...
We present a new approximation algorithm based on an exact representation of the state space S, using decision diagrams, and of the transition rate matrix R, using Kronecker algeb...
