We study the task of randomness extraction from sources which are distributed uniformly on an unknown algebraic variety. In other words, we are interested in constructing a functi...
In this paper we present a novel view point independent range image segmentation and recognition approach. We generate a library of 3D models off-line and represent each model wit...
Searching in decentralized peer-to-peer networks is a challenging problem. In common applications such as Gnutella, searching is performed by randomly forwarding queries to all pee...
We present a new and efficient semi-supervised training method for parameter estimation and feature selection in conditional random fields (CRFs). In real-world applications suc...
Advanced personalization of database applications is a big challenge, in particular for distributed mobile environments. We present several new results from a prototype of a route...
