Analytic simplification of animated characters
Traditionally, levels of detail (LOD) for animated characters are computed from a single pose. Later techniques refined this approach by considering a set of sample poses and eval...

A hierarchical approach to efficient reinforcement learning in deterministic domains
Factored representations, model-based learning, and hierarchies are well-studied techniques for improving the learning efficiency of reinforcement-learning algorithms in large-sca...

On the Statistical Consistency of DOP Estimators
A statistical estimator attempts to guess an unknown probability distribution by analyzing a sample from this distribution. One desirable property of an estimator is that its gues...

Effective Bayesian Inference for Stochastic Programs
In this paper, we propose a stochastic version of a general purpose functional programming language as a method of modeling stochastic processes. The language contains random choi...

Incremental reconstruction of sharp edges on mesh surfaces
Limited by the regular grids in computing, many modelling approaches (e.g., field-based methods) sample 3D shape insensitive to sharp features therefore exhibit aliasing errors, b...
