We present a “black-box” approach to estimating query cardinality that has no knowledge of query execution plans and data distribution, yet provides accurate estimates. It doe...
The problem of absolute stability is one of the oldest open problems in the theory of control. Even for the particular case of second-order systems a complete solution was present...
The filter flow problem is to compute a space-variant
linear filter that transforms one image into another. This
framework encompasses a broad range of transformations
including...
Representing images with layers has many important applications, such as video compression, motion analysis, and 3D scene analysis. This paper presents an approach to reliably ext...
