This paper conducts an in-depth study on a classical perceptual-organization problem: finding salient closed boundaries from a set of boundary fragments detected in a noisy image....
Many recent techniques for low-level vision problems such as image denoising are formulated in terms of Markov random field (MRF) or conditional random field (CRF) models. Nonethel...
We present a memory-aware load balancing (MALB) technique to dispatch transactions to replicas in a replicated database. Our MALB algorithm exploits knowledge of the working sets ...
