of distractors). Binocular luster, a variety of rivalry, is an exception. Luster, an important property of visible surfaces, behaves like a basic feature or "texton " (RT independent of the number of nonlustrous distractors). Searches for targets defined exclusively by eye-of-origin information

technique provides for frame-to-frame coherence in animations so that the resulting frames do not randomly change every frame. To maintain coherence, we model surfaces as 3d particle sets which are rendered as 2d paint brush strokes in screen space much like an artist lays down brush strokes on a canvas. We

from volume data, there has not yet emerged any widely accepted taxonomy for these methods. Because the human visual system is adapted for environments in which images of surfaces predominate, most algorithms emphasize in one way or another the display of surface-like information, either implicitly

The representation of geometric objects based on volumetric data structures has advantages in many geometry processing applications that require, e.g., fast surface interrogation or boolean operations such as intersection and union. However, surface based algorithms like shape optimization (fairing

for a given point on the fault) are found to be short compared to the overall duration of the earthquake ( — 10%). However, in many crack-like numerical models of dynamic rupture, the slip duration at a given point is comparable to the overall duration of the rupture; i.e. slip at a given point

-observability make the parameter-space cost surface multi-modal, unpredictable and illconditioned, so minimizing it is difficult. We discuss the limitations of CONDENSATION-like samplers, and introduce a novel hybrid search algorithm that combines inflated-covariance-scaled sampling and continuous optimization

-configuring display. Information display is such a prevailing part of everyday life that new and more flexible ways to present data are likely to have significant impact. This paper examines geometrical issues for enhanced projectors, relating to customized projection for different shapes of display surface, object

of proteins experimentally investigated with regard to glycosy-lation status. From O-GLYCBASE a total of 86 mammalian proteins experimentally investigated for in vivo O-GalNAc sites were extracted. Mammalian protein homolog compar-isons showed that a glycosylated serine or threonine is less likely

are nearly unobservable in any given monocular image. For image matching we use a carefully designed robust cost metric combining robust optical flow, edge energy, and motion boundaries. The nonlinearities and matching ambiguities make the parameter-space cost surface multi-modal, ill-conditioned and highly
