In this paper, a comparative study of lossless compression algorithms is presented. The following algorithms are considered: UNIX compress, gzip, LZW, CCITT Group 3 and Group 4, J...
Given a planar set S of arbitrary topology and a radius r, we show how to construct an r-tightening of S, which is a set whose boundary has a radius of curvature everywhere greate...
We study how to best use crowdsourced relevance judgments learning to rank [1, 7]. We integrate two lines of prior work: unreliable crowd-based binary annotation for binary classi...
We address the task of rendering by ray tracing the isosurface of a high-quality continuous spline model of volumetric discrete and regular data. By expressing the spline model as...
We present a novel statistical texture descriptor employing level-crossing statistics. Images are first mapped into 1D signals using space-filling curves, such as Peano or Hilbert...
