Unsupervised Non-parametric Region Segmentation Using Level Sets
We present a novel non-parametric unsupervised segmentation algorithm based on Region Competition [21]; but implemented within a Level Sets framework [11]. The key novelty of the ...

A Direct Sum Theorem in Communication Complexity via Message Compression
We prove lower bounds for the direct sum problem for two-party bounded error randomised multipleround communication protocols. Our proofs use the notion of information cost of a p...

BLIC: Bi-Level Isosurface Compression
In this paper we introduce a new and simple algorithm to compress isosurface data. This is the data extracted by isosurface algorithms from scalar functions defined on volume gri...

Scale-Invariant Shape Features for Recognition of Object Categories
We introduce a new class of distinguished regions based on detecting the most salient convex local arrangements of contours in the image. The regions are used in a similar way to ...
