Abstract: A method recovers a 3D model of non-rigid 3D shape and motion of an object directly from an input video of the object by first identifying a set of features on the object in a reference image of the input video. Correspondences are then determined between the set of features in the reference image and corresponding features in each other image of the input video, These correspondences are factored by cascaded singular value decompositions into a motion matrix and a shape matrix. The 3D model can then be extracted from the factored motion matrix and shape matrix. The 3D model includes a linear basis for deformable shape of the object in the input video, and for each image a 3D rotations matrix, deformation coefficients, and translation vectors. A novel video can now be generated from the input video by manipulating the 3D model.

Abstract: Keystrokes on a keyboard are predicted by constructing a model from a training corpus. The training corpus includes symbol sequences. The model predicts a set of symbols, where each symbol of the set continues a particular symbol sequence using variable-length subsequences of the particular symbol sequence. A particular length is chosen to maximize a probability that the predicting is correct. Keys on the keyboard are highlighted. The highlighted keys correspond to selected symbols in the set of symbols.

Abstract: A method performs an image processing application by expressing the image processing application as a non-negative quadratic program (NNQP) with a quadratic objective, and nonnegativity constraints. A Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition of the NNQP is expressed as a fixpoint ratio. Then, the fixpoint ratio is determined iteratively until a solution to the image processing application is reached with a desired precision.

Abstract: Radiation doses are optimized by providing a model of the set of beams and a target dose in normalized forms. A Gram matrix is determined from the model. The target dose is subsampled to determine initial intensity values for the set of beams. Then, the following steps are iterated until convergence. A very small positive value, 0

Abstract translation: 通过提供一组光束的模型和标准化形式的目标剂量来优化辐射剂量。 从模型中确定一个Gram矩阵。 对目标剂量进行二次采样，以确定该组光束的初始强度值。 然后，迭代以下步骤直到收敛。 向每个强度值加上非常小的正值0 <1，以确保强度值大于零。 将每个强度值乘以Gram矩阵以确定产品，将其逐个分成归一化的目标剂量以确定相应的比率。 如果比率全部接近1，则在数值误差容差内，输出该组光束的强度值。 否则，强度值乘以下一次迭代之前的比率。

Abstract: A method edits editing an input image to produce an output image by first partitioning pixels of the input image into sets of adjacent pixels. Then, for each set, a trellis of nodes connected by directed links is defined. Each node corresponds to one of the pixels in the set of pixels, and an action and location of the pixel in the output image. Costs are assigned to the nodes and the links. A least cost path through the trellis is determined, and pixels corresponding to the nodes on the least cost path are edited according to the action and location to form the output image.
