Video and image datasets can often be described by a small number of parameters, even though each image usually consists of hundreds or thousands of pixels. This observation is of...
Shadow mapping is a technique for doing real-time shadowing. Recent work has shown that shadow mapping hardware can be used as a second depth test in addition to the z-test. In th...
In this paper we explore private computation built on vector addition and its applications in privacypreserving data mining. Vector addition is a surprisingly general tool for imp...
We present an algorithm for polyline (and polygon) similarity testing that is based on the double-cross formalism. To determine the degree of similarity between two polylines, the...
Desktop Grids have become very popular nowadays, with projects that include hundred of thousands computers. Desktop grid scheduling faces two challenges. First, the platform is vo...
