In previous work on "transformed mixtures of Gaussians" and "transformed hidden Markov models", we showed how the EM algorithm in a discrete latent variable mo...
We address in this paper the issue of computing diffuse global illumination solutions for animation sequences. The principal difficulties lie in the computational complexity of gl...
We initiate the study of sparse recovery problems under the Earth-Mover Distance (EMD). Specifically, we design a distribution over m × n matrices A such that for any x, given A...
We present an algorithm for clustering sets of detected
interest points into groups that correspond to visually dis-
tinct structure. Through the use of a suitable colour and tex...
In this paper we describe an approach that uses a combination of visual and audio features to cluster shots belonging to the same person together in video programs. We use color h...
