Social network analysis became a common technique used to model and quantify the properties of social interactions. In this paper, we propose an integrated framework to explore th...
We present an automatic skew mitigation approach for userdefined MapReduce programs and present SkewTune, a system that implements this approach as a drop-in replacement for an e...

We present a novel variant of the RANSAC algorithm
that is much more efficient, in particular when dealing with
problems with low inlier ratios. Our algorithm assumes
that there...
By representing images and image prototypes by linear subspaces spanned by "tangent vectors" (derivatives of an image with respect to translation, rotation, etc.), impre...

We present a variational integration of nonlinear shape statistics into a Mumford?Shah based segmentation process. The nonlinear statistics are derived from a set of training silho...
