In partial-duplicate image retrieval, images are commonly represented using Bag-of-visual-Words (BoW) built from image local features, such as SIFT. Therefore, the discriminative ...
We present a novel method of building comfort control, focused around the occupant. Custom sensing, communication, and actuation hardware were developed to locate users in a buildi...
We consider a generalization of stochastic bandit problems where the set of arms, X, is allowed to be a generic topological space. We constraint the mean-payoff function with a di...
This paper presents a new adaptive graph-cut based move-making algorithm for energy minimization. Traditional move-making algorithms such as Expansion and Swap operate by searchin...
In an epidemiological model, time spent in one compartment is often modeled by a delay in the model. In general the presence of delay in differential equations can change the stab...
