In free viewpoint video, a viewer can choose at will any camera angle or the so-called "virtual view" to observe a dynamic 3-D scene, enhancing his/her depth perception. The virtual view is synthesized using texture and depth videos of two anchor camera vi ...
We propose a novel algorithm for automatic text line extraction on color and grayscale manuscript pages without prior binarization.
Our algorithm is based on seam carving to compute separating seams between text lines.
Seam carving is likely to produce ...
Relevant and readily available information is a crucial basis for decision making, problem solving or performing knowledge-intensive work. The motivation for this thesis lays in the fact that in certain situations not all information provided by an applica ...
We propose a distributed design method for decentralized control by exploiting the underlying sparsity properties of the problem. Our method is based on chordal decomposition of sparse block matrices and the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADM ...
The problem of control synthesis to maximize the probability of satisfying automata specifications for systems with uncertainty is addressed. Two types of uncertainty are considered; stochasticity in the dynamical system and in the sets defining the specif ...
In the first part of this thesis, we present and compare several approaches for the determination of the steady-state of large-scale Markov chains with an underlying low-rank tensor structure. Such structure is, in our context of interest, associated with ...
In the multi-armed bandit literature, the multi-bandit best-arm identification problem consists of determining each best arm in a number of disjoint groups of arms, with as few total arm pulls as possible. In this paper, we introduce a variant of the multi ...
Constraints and regulations related to new buildings are constantly evolving and all these changes, in our ways of thinking and producing, will have an impact on standards. For the policy field, contractual relationships, risk-allocation models and procedu ...
In most multi-robot systems, an individual robot is not capable of solving computationally hard problems due to lack of high processing power. This paper introduces the novel concept of robotic clusters to empower these systems in their problem solving. A ...
[Context] As opposed to the traditional approach to problem solving, which limits the scope of the solution to the stated problem, the mandate for services is to go deeper and focus on the value that the proposed solution creates for the entities affected ...
