Abstract: Piecewise smooth (PWS) images (e.g., depth maps or animation images) contain unique signal characteristics such as sharp object boundaries and slowly varying interior surfaces. Leveraging on ...

In this paper, we propose a method for finding the best piecewise linearization of nonlinear functions. For this aim, we try to obtain the best approximation of a nonlinear function as a piecewise ...

This is the second post (here’s the first one) about an approach to introducing the derivative to calculus students that is counter to what I’ve seen in textbooks and other traditional treatments of ...

Abstract: Block-based image or video coding standards (e.g. JPEG) compress an image lossily by quantizing transform coefficients of non-overlapping pixel blocks. If the chosen quantization parameters ...

Department of Electronics Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology (ISM), Dhanbad, India In this paper, a landmark based approach, using five different interpolating polynomials (linear, cubic ...

This paper considers a stochastic shortest path problem where the arc lengths are independent random variables following a normal distribution. In this problem, the optimal path is one that maximizes ...

Create a piecewise function handle. foo = PIECEWISE(f1,border,f2,border,f3,...) returns a function handle to a piecewise combination of provided functions (or constants), transitioning from one ...

I wanted to get a quick opinion from people on possible solutions on the issue where attention+quant fusion is incompatible with splitting_ops and hence piecewise cudagraphs. I've thought about it ...
