The complexity of multimedia contents is significantly increasing in the current digital world.
This yields an exigent demand for developing highly effective retrieval systems to satisfy …

Meshfree methods are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to mesh-based
methods of numerical simulation. The biggest stated advantage of meshfree methods is the …

Large-scale data are of crucial importance for learning semantic segmentation models, but
annotating per-pixel masks is a tedious and inefficient procedure. We note that for the topic …

Humans inevitably develop a sense of the relationships between objects, some of which are
based on their appearance. Some pairs of objects might be seen as being alternatives to …

To design a useful recommender system, it is important to understand how products relate to
each other. For example, while a user is browsing mobile phones, it might make sense to …

We present a new image editing method, particularly effective for sharpening major edges
by increasing the steepness of transition while eliminating a manageable degree of low …

We present a simple and robust Matlab code for polygonal mesh generation that relies on
an implicit description of the domain geometry. The mesh generator can provide, among …

Triangle meshes have been nearly ubiquitous in computer graphics, and a large body of
data structures and geometry processing algorithms based on them has been developed in …

Image segmentation is a fundamental problem in computer vision. Despite many years of
research, general purpose image segmentation is still a very challenging task because …

Since its inception, the full Lagrangian meshless smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH)
has experienced a tremendous enhancement in methodology and impacted a range of multi …
