Models and issues in data stream systems

by Brian Babcock, Shivnath Babu, Mayur Datar, Rajeev Motwani, Jennifer Widom - IN PODS , 2002
"... In this overview paper we motivate the need for and research issues arising from a new model of data processing. In this model, data does not take the form of persistent relations, but rather arrives in multiple, continuous, rapid, time-varying data streams. In addition to reviewing past work releva ..."

Training Support Vector Machines: an Application to Face Detection

by Edgar Osuna, Robert Freund, Federico Girosi , 1997
"... We investigate the application of Support Vector Machines (SVMs) in computer vision. SVM is a learning technique developed by V. Vapnik and his team (AT&T Bell Labs.) that can be seen as a new method for training polynomial, neural network, or Radial Basis Functions classifiers. The decision sur ..."

A Tutorial on Visual Servo Control

by Seth Hutchinson, Greg Hager, Peter Corke - IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation , 1996
"... This paper provides a tutorial introduction to visual servo control of robotic manipulators. Since the topic spans many disciplines our goal is limited to providing a basic conceptual framework. We begin by reviewing the prerequisite topics from robotics and computer vision, including a brief review ..."

review of coordinate transformations, velocity representation, and a description of the geometric aspects of the image formation process. We then present a taxonomy of visual servo control systems. The two major classes of systems, position-based and image-based systems, are then discussed. Since any

The modern industrial revolution, exit, and the failure of internal control systems

by Michael C. Jensen - JOURNAL OF FINANCE , 1993
"... Since 1973 technological, political, regulatory, and economic forces have been changing the worldwide economy in a fashion comparable to the changes experienced during the nineteenth century Industrial Revolution. As in the nineteenth century, we are experiencing declining costs, increaing average ( ..."

(but decreasing marginal) productivity of labor, reduced growth rates of labor income, excess capacity, and the requirement for downsizing and exit. The last two decades indicate corporate internal control systems have failed to deal effectively with these changes, especially slow growth

Shape modeling with front propagation: A level set approach

by Ravikanth Malladi, James A. Sethian, Baba C. Vemuri - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 1995
"... Abstract- Shape modeling is an important constituent of computer vision as well as computer graphics research. Shape models aid the tasks of object representation and recognition. This paper presents a new approach to shape modeling which re-tains some of the attractive features of existing methods ..."

having more than one object of interest, has the ability to split freely to represent each object. This method is based on the ideas developed by Osher and Sethian to model propagating solidhiquid interfaces with curva-ture-dependent speeds. The interface (front) is a closed, noninter

Controlled and automatic human information processing: II. Perceptual learning, automatic attending and a general theory

by Richard M. Shiffrin, Walter Schneider - Psychological Review , 1977
"... The two-process theory of detection, search, and attention presented by Schneider and Shiffrin is tested and extended in a series of experiments. The studies demonstrate the qualitative difference between two modes of information processing: automatic detection and controlled search. They trace the ..."

of categories is shown to improve controlled search performance. A general framework for human information processing is proposed; the framework emphasizes the roles of automatic and controlled processing. The theory is compared to and contrasted with extant models of search and attention.

The Google File System

by Sanjay Ghemawat, Howard Gobioff, Shun-tak Leung - ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review
"... We have designed and implemented the Google File Sys-tem, a scalable distributed file system for large distributed data-intensive applications. It provides fault tolerance while running on inexpensive commodity hardware, and it delivers high aggregate performance to a large number of clients. While ..."

A Morphable Model For The Synthesis Of 3D Faces

by Volker Blanz , Thomas Vetter , 1999
"... In this paper, a new technique for modeling textured 3D faces is introduced. 3D faces can either be generated automatically from one or more photographs, or modeled directly through an intuitive user interface. Users are assisted in two key problems of computer aided face modeling. First, new face i ..."

The empirical case for two systems of reasoning

by Steven A. Sloman , 1996
"... Distinctions have been proposed between systems of reasoning for centuries. This article distills properties shared by many of these distinctions and characterizes the resulting systems in light of recent findings and theoretical developments. One system is associative because its computations ref ..."

Cognitive Radio: Brain-Empowered Wireless Communications

by Simon Haykin , 2005
"... Cognitive radio is viewed as a novel approach for improving the utilization of a precious natural resource: the radio electromagnetic spectrum. The cognitive radio, built on a software-defined radio, is defined as an intelligent wireless communication system that is aware of its environment and use ..."
