In this paper we introduce POLAR, a probabilistic objectoriented logical framework for annotation-based information retrieval. In POLAR, the knowledge about digital objects, annot...
Existing search engines contain the picture of the Web from the past and their ranking algorithms are based on data crawled some time ago. However, a user requires not only relevan...
This paper presents an efficient keyframeless image-based rendering technique. An intermediate image is used to exploit the coherences among neighboring frames. The pixels in the...
Function Point Analysis (FPA) is a well-known method to measure the functionality of a system, from the user’s point of view. Both Albrecht’s original model and a local varian...
We describe a method of constructing a B-rep solid model from a single hidden-line removed sketch view of a 3D object. The main steps of our approach are as follows. The sketch is...
