576 Henderson, Thomas C.Monte Carlo sensor networksBiswas et al. [1] introduced a probabilistic approach to inference with limited information in sensor networks. They represented the sensor network as a Bayesian network and performed approximate inference using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The goal is to robustly answer queries even under no...Monte Carlo sensor networks; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; MCMC2005-01-20

578 Bruderlin, BeatMoving into higher dimensions of geometric constraint solvingIn this paper, we present an approach to geometric constraint solving, based on degree of freedom analysis. Any geometric primitive (point, line, circle, plane, etc.) possesses an intrinsic degree of freedom in its embedding space which is usually two or three dimensional. Constraints reduce the deg...Geometric constraint solving1994
579 Carter, John B.MP-LOCKs: Replacing hardware synchronization primitives with message passingShared memory programs guarantee the correctness of concurrent accesses to shared data using interprocessor synchronization operations. The most common synchronization operators are locks, which are traditionally implemented in user-level libraries via a mix of shared memory accesses and hardware sy...MP-LOCKs; Message passing; Shared memory programs; Synchronization operators; Synchronization primitives2011-05
580 Hansen, Charles D.Multidimensional transfer functions for interactive volume renderingAbstract-Most direct volume renderings produced today employ one-dimensional transfer functions which assign color and opacity to the volume based solely on the single scalar quantity which comprises the data set. Though they have not received widespread attention, multidimensional transfer function...2002-07
581 Bargteil, Adam WadeMultiphase flow of immiscible fluids on unstructured moving meshesIn this paper, we present a method for animating multiphase flow of immiscible fluids using unstructured moving meshes. Our underlying discretization is an unstructured tetrahedral mesh, the deformable simplicial complex (DSC), that moves with the flow in a Lagrangian manner. Mesh optimization opera...2014-01-01
582 Venkatasubramanian, SureshMultiple target tracking with RF sensor networksRF sensor networks are wireless networks that can localize and track people (or targets) without needing them to carry or wear any electronic device. They use the change in the received signal strength (RSS) of the links due to the movements of people to infer their locations. In this paper, we cons...2014-01-01
583 Henderson, Thomas C.Multisensor knowledge systemsWe describe an approach which facilitates and makes explicit the organization of the knowledge necessary to map multisensor system requirements onto an appropriate assembly of algorithms, processors, sensors, and actuators.

585 Henderson, Thomas C.Multisensor methods to estimate thermal diffusivitySeveral methods for the estimation of thermal diffusivity are studied in this work. In many application scenarios, the thermal diffusivity is unknown and must be estimated in order to perform other estimation functions (e.g., tracking of the physical phenomenon, or solving other inverse problems lik...2012-01-01
586 Pascucci, ValerioMultivariate volume visualization through dynamic projectionsWe propose a multivariate volume visualization framework that tightly couples dynamic projections with a high-dimensional transfer function design for interactive volume visualization. We assume that the complex, high-dimensional data in the attribute space can be well-represented through a collecti...2014-01-01
587 Pascucci, ValerioThe natural Helmholtz-Hodge decomposition for open-boundary flow analysisThe Helmholtz-Hodge decomposition (HHD), which describes a flow as the sum of an incompressible, an irrotational, and a harmonic flow, is a fundamental tool for simulation and analysis. Unfortunately, for bounded domains, the HHD is not uniquely defined, traditionally, boundary conditions are impose...2014-01-01
588 Shirley, Peter S.Natural image statistics for computer graphicsThe class of all natural images is an infinitely small fraction of all possible images. The structure of natural images can be statistically modeled, revealing striking regularities. The human visual system appears to be optimized to view natural images, as opposed to any possible image, and therefo...Natural image2001
589 Balasubramonian, RajeevNDC: Analyzing the impact of 3D-stacked memory+logic devices on MapReduce workloadsWhile Processing-in-Memory has been investigated for decades, it has not been embraced commercially. A number of emerging technologies have renewed interest in this topic. In particular, the emergence of 3D stacking and the imminent release of Micron's Hybrid Memory Cube device have made it more pra...2014-01-01
