This paper contains two contributions to very-low-bitrate video coding. First, we show that in contrast to common practice incremental techniques for rate-distortion optimization ...
Phylogenetic trees are built by examining differences in the biological traits of a set of species. An example of such a trait is a biological network such as a metabolic pathway,...
Abstract We propose an alternative notion of asymptotic behaviors for the study of type2 computational complexity. Since the classical asymptotic notion (for all but finitely many...
We present an approach to hierarchically encode the topology of functions over triangulated surfaces. We describe the topology of a function by its Morse-Smale complex, a well kno...
: This is a position paper introducing blob computing: A Blob is a generic primitive used to structure a uniform computing substrate into an easier-to-program parallel virtual mach...
