This research is motivated by the needs of robust streaming of vector graphics contents over the Internet, wireless and other lossy networks. We present a multiple description cod...
We discuss the problems of spatio-temporal reasoning in the context of hierarchical information maps and approximate reasoning networks (AR networks). Hierarchical information maps...
We describe an extension of B-splines to surfacesof arbitrary topology, including arbitrary boundaries. The technique inherits many of the properties of B-splines: local control, ...
Abstract—The construction of world models typically requires laborious survey and cataloguing of a building’s contents. OpenRoomMap attempts to crowd-source this information by...
Variational relaxations can be used to compute approximate minimizers of optimal partitioning and multiclass labeling problems on continuous domains. While the resulting relaxed co...
