Computing similarity between piecewise-linear functions
We study the problem of computing the similarity between two piecewise-linear bivariate functions defined over a common domain, where the surfaces they define in 3D—polyhedral...

Locality Versus Globality: Query-Driven Localized Linear Models for Facial Image Computing
Conventional subspace learning or recent feature extraction methods consider globality as the key criterion to design discriminative algorithms for image classification. We demonst...
