The existing methods for offline training of cascade classifiers take a greedy search to optimize individual classifiers in the cascade, leading inefficient overall performance. W...
Users of MapReduce often run into performance problems when they scale up their workloads. Many of the problems they encounter can be overcome by applying techniques learned from ...

It has long been known that Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) is superior to Euclidean distance for classification and clustering of time series. However, until lately, most research has...
Robust tracking of abrupt motion is a challenging task
in computer vision due to the large motion uncertainty. In
this paper, we propose a stochastic approximation Monte
Carlo (...
