Sequential random sampling (`Markov Chain Monte-Carlo') is a popular strategy for many vision problems involving multimodal distributions over high-dimensional parameter spac...
In this paper, we propose a method for human tracking using 3D human body model in a video sequence with a monocular moving camera. Tracking a human with unconstrained movement in...
The Blob Code is a bijective tree code that represents each tree on n labelled vertices as a string of n − 2 vertex labels. In recent years, several researchers have deployed th...
A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
Exponential algorithms, i.e. algorithms of complexity O(cn ) for some c > 1, seem to be unavoidable in the case of NP-complete problems (unless P=NP), especially if the problem ...
