Abstract. In this paper, we presen t an algorithm that provides adaptive plasticity in function approximation problems: the deformable (feature) map (DM) algorithm. The DM approach...
The Self-Organizing Map, SOM, is a widely used tool in exploratory data analysis. A major drawback of the SOM has been the lack of a theoretically justified criterion for model se...
— Shape control of continuum robots requires a means of sensing the the curved shape of the robot. Since continuum robots are deformable, they take on shapes that are general cur...

Image defocus estimation is useful for several applications including deblurring, blur magnification, measuring image quality, and depth of field segmentation. In this paper, we p...
The problem of finding locally dense components of a graph is an important primitive in data analysis, with wide-ranging applications from community mining to spam detection and ...
