Standard hidden Markov models (HMM's) have been studied extensively in the last two decades. It is well known that these models assume state conditional independence of the ob...
We investigate a method to speed up the O(n3 ) labeling algorithm of Rosenfeld and Pfaltz for segmenting binary images, which is unduly complex for large images. That algorithm sea...
Shadow maps are a widely used shadowing technique in real time graphics. One major drawback of their use is that they cannot be filtered in the same way as color textures, typica...
Abstract-- Particle simulation has become an important research tool in many scientific and engineering fields. Data generated by such simulations impose great challenges to databa...
—The departure process of a BMAP/MAP/1 queue can be approximated in different ways: as a Markovian arrival process (MAP) or as a matrix-exponential process (MEP). Both approximat...
