—Channel dispersion plays a fundamental role in assessing the backoff from capacity due to finite blocklength. This paper analyzes the channel dispersion for a simple channel wi...

Appropriate selection of the kernel function, which implicitly defines the feature space of an algorithm, has a crucial role in the success of kernel methods. In this paper, we co...
This paper introduces an affine invariant shape descriptor for maximally stable extremal regions (MSER). Affine invariant feature descriptors are normally computed by sampling the...
We present a robust, noise-resistant criterion characterizing planelike skeletons in binary voxel objects. It is based on a distance map and the geodesic distance along the object...
Object recognition, i. e. classification of objects into one of several known object classes, generally is a difficult task. In this paper we address the problem of detecting an...
