Scheduling to minimize power consumption using submodular functions
We develop logarithmic approximation algorithms for extremely general formulations of multiprocessor multiinterval offline task scheduling to minimize power usage. Here each proce...

Spatial extensions to bag of visual words
The Bag of Visual Words (BoV) paradigm has successfully been applied to image content analysis tasks such as image classification and object detection. The basic BoV approach ove...

Lattices that admit logarithmic worst-case to average-case connection factors
We demonstrate an average-case problem that is as hard as finding (n)-approximate shortest vectors in certain n-dimensional lattices in the worst case, where (n) = O( log n). The...

Towards a theory for securing time synchronization in wireless sensor networks
Time synchronization in highly distributed wireless systems like sensor and ad hoc networks is extremely important in order to maintain a consistent notion of time throughout the ...

Stereo Matching in the Presence of Sub-Pixel Calibration Errors
Stereo matching commonly requires rectified images that are computed from calibrated cameras. Since all under- lying parametric camera models are only approximations, calibratio...
