Poselets and Their Applications in High-Level Computer VisionPart detectors are a common way to handle the variability in appearance in high-level computer vision problems, such as detection and semantic segmentation. Identifying good parts, however, remains an open question. Anatomical parts, such as arms and legs, are difficult to detect reliably because parallel lines are common in natural ...
Building Modern Integrated Systems: A Cross-cut ApproachThe slowdown in process scaling due to fundamental limitations of transistors and copper wires, has put tremendous challenges on traditional integrated system design methodology and continued performance improvements. These fundamental component limitations (subthreshold transistor leakage and wire capacitance/resistivity) have brought into the focus the need for energy‑efficient cross-cut integrated system ...
