Background modeling plays an important role in video surveillance, yet in complex scenes it is still a challenging problem. Among many difficulties, problems caused by illuminatio...
In this paper we investigate the usage of random ortho-projections in the compression of sparse feature vectors. The study is carried out by evaluating the compressed features in ...
We study the problem of agents locating other agents that are both capable and willing to help complete assigned tasks. An agent incurs a fixed cost for each help request it sends...
