In many studies of self-organized criticality (SOC), branching processes were used to model the dynamics of the activity of the system during avalanches. This mathematical simpli...
Real-world natural language sentences are long and complex, and always contain unexpected grammatical constructions. It even includes noise and ungrammaticality. This paper descri...
Image matching has been a central research topic in computer vision over the last decades. Typical approaches for correspondence involve matching features between images. In this p...
