Direct Methods for Estimation of Structure and Motion from Three Views
(1996-12-01)
We describe a new direct method for estimating structure and motion from image intensities of multiple views. We extend the direct methods of Horn- and-Weldon to three views. Adding the third view enables us to solve ...
Lens Distortion Calibration Using Point Correspondences
(1996-12-01)
This paper describes a new method for lens distortion calibration using only point correspondences in multiple views, without the need to know either the 3D location of the points or the camera locations. The standard ...
General Purpose Parallel Computation on a DNA Substrate
(1996-12-01)
In this paper I describe and extend a new DNA computing paradigm introduced in Blumberg for building massively parallel machines in the DNA-computing models described by Adelman, Cai et. al., and Liu et. al. Employing ...
Parallel Function Application on a DNA Substrate
(1996-12-01)
In this paper I present a new model that employs a biological (specifically DNA -based) substrate for performing computation. Specifically, I describe strategies for performing parallel function application in the ...
Comparing Support Vector Machines with Gaussian Kernels to Radial Basis Function Classifiers
(1996-12-01)
The Support Vector (SV) machine is a novel type of learning machine, based on statistical learning theory, which contains polynomial classifiers, neural networks, and radial basis function (RBF) networks as special ...
An Analog VLSI Chip for Estimating the Focus of Expansion
(1996-08-21)
For applications involving the control of moving vehicles, the recovery of relative motion between a camera and its environment is of high utility. This thesis describes the design and testing of a real-time analog ...
Internet Fish
(1996-08-01)
I have invented "Internet Fish," a novel class of resource-discovery tools designed to help users extract useful information from the Internet. Internet Fish (IFish) are semi-autonomous, persistent information brokers; ...
Learning and Example Selection for Object and Pattern Detection
(1996-03-13)
This thesis presents a learning based approach for detecting classes of objects and patterns with variable image appearance but highly predictable image boundaries. It consists of two parts. In part one, we introduce our ...
Pose-Invariant Face Recognition Using Real and Virtual Views
(1996-03-28)
The problem of automatic face recognition is to visually identify a person in an input image. This task is performed by matching the input face against the faces of known people in a database of faces. Most existing ...
SketchIT: A Sketch Interpretation Tool for Conceptual Mechanical Design
(1996-03-13)
We describe a program called SketchIT capable of producing multiple families of designs from a single sketch. The program is given a rough sketch (drawn using line segments for part faces and icons for springs and ...
