Traditional pairwise sequence alignment is based on matching individual samples from two sequences, under time monotonicity constraints. However, in many application settings matching subsequences (segments) instead of individual samples…
Eclipsing binaries provide one of the most direct mechanisms for measuring stellar properties such as mass and radius, but historically, determining these properties has been non-trivial and computationally prohibitive. As such, only a…
Top-down instance segmentation framework has shown its superiority in object detection compared to the bottom-up framework. While it is efficient in addressing over-segmentation, top-down instance segmentation suffers from over-crop…
