We introduce a new texture representation that combines standard sampling, to be bilinearly interpolated in smoothly varying regions, with customizable discontinuities, to model s...
We introduce the N-buffer as a tool for multiresolution depth map representation. This neighborhood buffer encodes the value and position of local depth extrema at different scale...
Differential Evolution (DE) has attracted much attention recently as an effective approach for solving numerical optimization problems. However, the performance of DE is sensitive ...
In this paper we discuss multiperiod portfolio selection problems related to a speci…c provisioning problem. Our results are an extension of Dhaene et al. (2005), where optimal ...
— We present SPIDER – a system for fast replication or distribution of large content from a single source to multiple sites interconnected over Internet or via a private networ...
