In local feature?based face recognition systems, the topographical locations of feature extractors directly affect the discriminative power of a recognizer. Better recognition acc...
In this paper we present algorithms for building and maintaining efficient collection trees that provide the conduit to disseminate data required for processing monitoring queries...
Automatic recognition and formalization of constraints from free-form service requests is a challenging problem. Its resolution would go a long way toward allowing users to make r...
Given a set of multi-dimensional points, the skyline contains the best points according to any preference function that is monotone on all axes. In practice, applications that req...
This paper formalizes a novel, intrinsic geometric scale space (IGSS) of 3D surface shapes. The intrinsic geometry of a surface is diffused by means of the Ricci flow for the gener...
