Tensor Decompositions and Applications

by Tamara G. Kolda, Brett W. Bader - SIAM REVIEW , 2009
"... This survey provides an overview of higher-order tensor decompositions, their applications, and available software. A tensor is a multidimensional or N -way array. Decompositions of higher-order tensors (i.e., N -way arrays with N ≥ 3) have applications in psychometrics, chemometrics, signal proce ..."

On-line and Off-line Handwriting Recognition: A Comprehensive Survey

by Reâ Jean Plamondon, Sargur N. Srihari - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
"... AbstractÐHandwriting has continued to persist as a means of communication and recording information in day-to-day life even with the introduction of new technologies. Given its ubiquity in human transactions, machine recognition of handwriting has practical significance, as in reading handwritten no ..."

Lucas-Kanade 20 Years On: A Unifying Framework: Part 3

by Simon Baker, Ralph Gross, Iain Matthews - International Journal of Computer Vision , 2002
"... Since the Lucas-Kanade algorithm was proposed in 1981 image alignment has become one of the most widely used techniques in computer vision. Applications range from optical flow, tracking, and layered motion, to mosaic construction, medical image registration, and face coding. Numerous algorithms hav ..."

have been proposed and a variety of extensions have been made to the original formulation. We present an overview of image alignment, describing most of the algorithms in a consistent framework. We concentrate on the inverse compositional algorithm, an efficient algorithm that we recently proposed. We

Capacity Limits of MIMO Channels

by Andrea Goldsmith, Sriram Vishwanath, et al. - IEEE J. SELECT. AREAS COMMUN , 2003
"... We provide an overview of the extensive recent results on the Shannon capacity of single-user and multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels. Although enormous capacity gains have been predicted for such channels, these predictions are based on somewhat unrealistic assumptions about t ..."

Qualitative Spatial Representation and Reasoning: An Overview

by A G Cohn, S M Hazarika - FUNDAMENTA INFORMATICAE , 2001
"... The paper is a overview of the major qualitative spatial representation and reasoning techniques. We survey the main aspects of the representation of qualitative knowledge including ontological aspects, topology, distance, orientation and shape. We also consider qualitative spatial reasoning inclu ..."

Mutual-information-based registration of medical images: a survey

by Josien P. W. Pluim, J. B. Antoine Maintz, Max A. Viergever - IEEE TRANSCATIONS ON MEDICAL IMAGING , 2003
"... An overview is presented of the medical image processing literature on mutual-information-based registration. The aim of the survey is threefold: an introduction for those new to the field, an overview for those working in the field, and a reference for those searching for literature on a specific ..."

Living with CLASSIC: When and How to Use a KL-ONE-Like Language

by Ronald J. Brachman, Deborah L. McGuinness, Peter F. Patel-Schneider, Lori A. Resnick, Lori Alperin Resnick, Alexander Borgida - Principles of Semantic Networks , 1991
"... classic is a recently-developed knowledge representation system that follows the paradigm originally set out in the kl-one system: it concentrates on the definition of structured concepts, their organization into taxonomies, the creation and manipulation of individual instances of such concepts, ..."

, and the key inferences of subsumption and classification. Rather than simply presenting a description of classic, we complement a brief system overview with a discussion of how to live within the confines of a limited object-oriented deductive system. By analyzing the representational strengths

An overview and synthesis on timed process algebras

by Xavier Nicollin, Joseph Sifakis , 1991
"... We present anoverview and synthesis of existing results about process algebras for the speci cation and analysis of timed systems. The motivation is double: present anoverview of some relevant and representative approaches and suggest a unifying framework for them. time, we propose a general model f ..."

The presentation is organised as an exercise of building a timed process algebra from a standard process algebra for untimed systems. The overview is completed by a discussion about description capabilities according

DETERMINANT MAXIMIZATION WITH LINEAR MATRIX INEQUALITY CONSTRAINTS

by Lieven Vandenberghe , Stephen Boyd , Shao-po Wu
"... The problem of maximizing the determinant of a matrix subject to linear matrix inequalities arises in many fields, including computational geometry, statistics, system identification, experiment design, and information and communication theory. It can also be considered as a generalization of the s ..."

Opennes and Wage Inequality in Developing Countries: The Latin American Challenge to East Asian Wisdom

by Adrian Wood - The World Bank Economic Review , 1997
"... The experience of East Asia in the 1960s and 1970s supports the theory that greater openness to trade tends to narrow the wage gap between skilled and unskilled workers in developing countries. In Latin America since the mid-1980s, however, increased openness has widened wage differentials. This con ..."

Section I outlines the theory underlying the conventional wisdom. Section II provides an overview of the empirical
