In many Web search applications, similarities between objects of one type (say, queries) can be affected by the similarities between their interrelated objects of another type (sa...
Abstract. Parallel program design patterns provide users a new way to get parallel programs without much effort. However, it is always a serious limitation for most existing parall...
It was recently shown that block-circulant preconditioners applied to a conjugate gradient method used to solve structured sparse linear systems arising from 2D or 3D elliptic prob...
Given a set of 3D model features and their 2D image, model based object recognition determines the correspondences between those features and hence computes the pose of the object...
In this paper, we propose an unsupervised approach to select representative face samples (models) from raw videos and build an appearance-based face recognition system. The approa...
