Real time localization and 3d reconstruction
In this paper we describe a method that estimates the motion of a calibrated camera (settled
on an experimental vehicle) and the tridimensional geometry of the environment. The only …

Graph homomorphisms with complex values: A dichotomy theorem
Each symmetric matrix A over C defines a graph homomorphism function Z_\bfA(⋅) on
undirected graphs. The function Z_A(⋅) is also called the partition function from statistical …
