In many dynamic matching applications—especially high-stakes ones—the competitive ratios of prior-free online algorithms are unacceptably poor. The algorithm should take distr...

In this paper, a novel feature named Adaptive Contour
Feature (ACF) is proposed for human detection and segmentation.
This feature consists of a chain of a number of

We present a stochastic clustering algorithm which uses pairwise similarity of elements, based on a new graph theoretical algorithm for the sampling of cuts in graphs. The stochas...
We develop a new framework for the quantitative analysis of shapes of planar curves. Shapes are modeled on elastic strings that can be bent, stretched or compressed at different r...
Most face recognition systems focus on photo-based face recognition. In this paper, we present a face recognition system based on face sketches. The proposed system contains two e...
