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...
This paper examines some of the rich structure of the syntenic distance model of evolutionary distance, introduced by Ferretti et al. (1996). The syntenic distance between two gen...
Abstract. We are interested in efficient algorithms for generating random samples from geometric objects such as Riemannian manifolds. As a step in this direction, we consider the ...
We consider the following generalization of bin packing. Each item is associated with a size bounded by 1, as well as a rejection cost, that an algorithm must pay if it chooses not...
In this paper, both non-mixing and mixing local minima of the entropy are analyzed from the viewpoint of blind source separation (BSS); they correspond respectively to acceptable a...
