Given two shapes, the correspondence between distinct visual features is the basis for most alignment processes and shape similarity measures. This paper presents an approach intr...
We propose a non-parametric texture modeling and synthesis technique based on the integer version of the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). The successive levels of the DWT pyramid...
The use of Bayesian networks for classification problems has received significant recent attention. Although computationally efficient, the standard maximum likelihood learning me...
New devices gaining access to the Internet need to obtain multimedia content adapted to their limited capacities. Scalable formats allow to retrieve different versions of a single...
A number of researchers have become interested in the design of global-scale networked systems and applications. Our thesis here is that the database community's principles a...
