Optimal Weighting of Landmarks for Face Recognition
A new method named Landmark Model Matching was recently proposed for fully automatic face recognition. It was inspired by Elastic Bunch Graph Matching and Active Shape Model. Landm...

Maximum Weight Independent Sets and Matchings in Sparse Random Graphs. Exact Results Using the Local Weak Convergence Method
ABSTRACT: Let G(n, c/n) and Gr(n) be an n-node sparse random graph and a sparse random rregular graph, respectively, and let I(n, r) and I(n, c) be the sizes of the largest indepen...
