To peripheral vision, a pair of physically different images can look the same. Such pairs are metamers relative to each other, just as physically-different spectra light perceived same color. We propose real-time method compute such ventral for foveated rendering where, in particular near-eye displays, largest part framebuffer maps periphery. This improves quality over state-of-the-art foveatio...

We present the design and partial implementation of an automated parallelising compiler for Standard ML using algorithmic skeletons. Source programs are parsed and elaborated using the ML Kit compiler and a small set of higher order functions are automatically detected and replaced with parallel equivalents. Without the presence of performance predictions, the compiler simply instantiates all i...

Search of discrete spaces is important in combinatorial optimization. Such problems arise in artificial intelligence, computer vision, operations research, and other areas. For realistic problems, the search spaces to be processed are usually huge, necessitating long computation times, pruning heuristics, or massively parallel processing. We present an algorithm that reduces the computation tim...

This paper describes the design and the analysis of parallel algorithms for the interpretation of planar or perspective projections of scenes constructed by some generating grammar (trihedral scenes, Manhattan world, Origami scenes, Pottery world). The motivation is that parallel techniques are more and more studied in Arti cial Intelligence and Computer Vision as parallel machines improve thei...

In this paper, we describe a massively parallel programming language V and its application to describe of parallel image processing algorithms. V is designed so as to be independent from target machine architectures as much as possible, and to provide a framework for programmers to describe a wide variety of parallel algorithms easily. V is based on a functional language framework and enhanced ...

some physical attributes of two common types of iranian garlic cloves (white and pink) were identified and compared. a machine vision system was used to determine three di-mensions and both major and minor projected areas of garlic cloves at a moisture content of 42.4% w. b. the geometric mean diameter and sphericity were calculated, as well as the unit mass and volume of cloves were measured. ...
