Face Photo-Sketch Synthesis and Recognition Xiaogang Wang; Xiaoou Tang Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on Volume 31, Issue 11, Date: Nov. 2009, Pages: 1955-1967 Digital Object Identifier 10.1109/TPAMI.2008.222 Summary: In this paper, we propose a novel face photo-sketch synthesis and recognition method using a multiscale Markov Random Fields (MRF) model. Our system has three components: 1) given a face photo, synthesizing a sketch drawing; 2) given a face sketch dra...

99.	High-Speed Optical Receivers With Integrated Photodiode in 130 nm CMOS Tavernier, F.; Steyaert, M.S.J. Solid-State Circuits, IEEE Journal of Volume 44, Issue 10, Date: Oct. 2009, Pages: 2856-2867 Digital Object Identifier 10.1109/JSSC.2009.2028755 Summary: The design and measurement of two optical receivers with integrated photodiode in 130 nm CMOS is presented. The low bandwidth, which is typical for photodiodes in CMOS technologies, is circumvented by a differential photodiode topology on the one hand...
