Histograms are typically used to approximate data distributions. Histograms and related synopsis structures have been successful in a wide variety of popular database applications...
We study a sequential variance reduction technique for Monte Carlo estimation of functionals in Markov Chains. The method is based on designing sequential control variates using s...
Abstract—A general variational framework for image approximation and segmentation is introduced. By using a continuous “line-process” to represent edge boundaries, it is poss...
In [13], Erd˝os et al. defined the local chromatic number of a graph as the minimum number of colors that must appear within distance 1 of a vertex. For any ∆ ≥ 2, there are ...
In this paper we propose an approach for action recognition based on a vocabulary of local motion-appearance features and fast approximate search in a large number of trees. Large...
