Abstract. Variational frameworks based on level set methods are popular for the general problem of image segmentation. They combine different feature channels in an energy minimiz...
We reveal that the Okapi BM25 retrieval function tends to overly penalize very long documents. To address this problem, we present a simple yet effective extension of BM25, namel...
In this paper, we introduce U-MAP, a new system for schema mapping generation. U-MAP builds upon and extends existing schema mapping techniques. However, it mitigates some key pro...
We present a new framework in which image segmentation, figure/ground organization, and object detection all appear as the result of solving a single grouping problem. This frame...
In this paper, we propose a physically-based dynamical model for tracking. Our model relies on Newton’s second law of motion, which governs any real-world dynamical system. As a...
