Bundle Adjustment -- A Modern Synthesis

by Bill Triggs, Philip McLauchlan, Richard Hartley, Andrew Fitzgibbon - VISION ALGORITHMS: THEORY AND PRACTICE, LNCS , 2000
"... This paper is a survey of the theory and methods of photogrammetric bundle adjustment, aimed at potential implementors in the computer vision community. Bundle adjustment is the problem of refining a visual reconstruction to produce jointly optimal structure and viewing parameter estimates. Topics c ..."

The Generative Lexicon

by James Pustejovsky - Computational Linguistics , 1991
"... this paper, I will discuss four major topics relating to current research in lexical semantics: methodology, descriptive coverage, adequacy of the representation, and the computational usefulness of representations. In addressing these issues, I will discuss what I think are some of the central prob ..."

problems facing the lexical semantics community, and suggest ways of best approaching these issues. Then, I will provide a method for the decomposition of lexical categories and outline a theory of lexical semantics embodying a notion of cocompositionality and type coercion, as well as several levels

Social capital, intellectual capital, and the organizational advantage

by Janine Nahapiet - Academy of Management Review , 1998
"... Scholars of the theory of the firm have begun to emphasize the sources and conditions of what has been described a s "the organizational advantage, " rather than focus on the causes and consequences of market failure. Typically, researchers see such organizational advantage a s accruing fr ..."

Factoring wavelet transforms into lifting steps

by Ingrid Daubechies, Wim Sweldens - J. FOURIER ANAL. APPL , 1998
"... This paper is essentially tutorial in nature. We show how any discrete wavelet transform or two band subband filtering with finite filters can be decomposed into a finite sequence of simple filtering steps, which we call lifting steps but that are also known as ladder structures. This decompositio ..."

. This decomposition corresponds to a factorization of the polyphase matrix of the wavelet or subband filters into elementary matrices. That such a factorization is possible is well-known to algebraists (and expressed by the formula); it is also used in linear systems theory in the electrical engineering community. We

What Is Coefficient alpha? An Examination of Theory and Applications

by Jose M. Cortina - Journal of Applied Psychology , 1993
"... Psychological research involving scale construction has been hindered considerably by a wide-spread lack of understanding of coefficient alpha and reliability theory in general. A discussion of the assumptions and meaning of coefficient alpha is presented. This discussion is followed by a demonstrat ..."

Information Diffusion through Blogspace

by D. Gruhl, R. Guha, David Liben-nowell, A. Tomkins - In WWW ’04 , 2004
"... We study the dynamics of information propagation in environments of low-overhead personal publishing, using a large collection of weblogs over time as our example domain. We characterize and model this collection at two levels. First, we present a macroscopic characterization of topic propagation th ..."

Pizza into Java: Translating theory into practice

by Martin Odersky, Philip Wadler - In Proc. 24th ACM Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages , 1997
"... Pizza is a strict superset of Java that incorporates three ideas from the academic community: parametric polymorphism, higher-order functions, and algebraic data types. Pizza attempts to make these ideas accessible by translating them into Java. We mean that both figuratively and literally, because ..."

The generalized distributive law
