The similarity search has become a fundamental computational task in many applications. One of the mathematical models of the similarity – the metric space – has drawn attenti...
Consider yourself faced with learning about a new system. You have lots of measurements available, but you really don't know which measurements affect the values of others. H...
We explore the possibility of recognizing the surface material from a single image with unknown illumination, given the shape of the surface. Model-based PCA is used to create a lo...
This paper presents a quantification of the timing effects that advanced processor features like data and instruction cache, pipelines, branch prediction units and out-oforder ex...
The concept of elongation is generally well understood. However, there is no clear, precise, mathematical definition of elongation in any dictionary we could find. We propose that ...
