We solve the problem of computing global conformal parameterizations for surfaces with nontrivial topologies. The parameterization is global in the sense that it preserves the con...
—Representative surface reconstruction algorithms taking a gradient field as input enforces the integrability constraint in a discrete manner. While enforcing integrability allo...
— We study the throughput capacity of hybrid wireless networks. A hybrid network is formed by placing a sparse network of base stations in an ad hoc network. These base stations ...
The Dantzig selector is a near ideal estimator for recovery of sparse signals from linear measurements in the presence of noise. It is a convex optimization problem which can be r...
Many existing approaches to collaborative filtering can neither handle very large datasets nor easily deal with users who have very few ratings. In this paper we present the Prob...
