The amount of documents directly published by end users is increasing along with the growth of Web 2.0. Such documents often contain spoken-style expressions, which are difficult...
Many imaging systems seek a good interpretation of the scene presented -- i.e., a plausible (perhaps optimal) mapping from aspects of the scene to real-world objects. This paper a...
We present a syntax-based constraint for word alignment, known as the cohesion constraint. It requires disjoint English phrases to be mapped to non-overlapping intervals in the Fr...
We study complexity of methods using rigid variables, like the method of matings or the tableau method, on a decidable class of predicate calculus with equality. We show some intr...
This paper presents the design of an ASIC intended for optimal edge detection of blurred and noisy 2-D images. The chip has a parallel and pipelined architecture which processes a...
