Abstract. There are two complementary approaches to playing sums of combinatorial games. They can be characterized as local analysis and global search. Algorithms from combinatoria...
—A method for detection of tree branches and leaves in video is proposed. It is observed that the motion vectors of tree branches and leaves exhibit random motion. On the other h...
We present a Bayesian search algorithm for learning the structure of latent variable models of continuous variables. We stress the importance of applying search operators designed...
Manydesign problems are solved using multiple levels of abstraction, wherea design at one level has combinatorially manychildren at the next level. A stochastic optimization metho...

We look at the problem of location recognition in a large image dataset using a vocabulary tree. This entails finding the location of a query image in a large dataset containing 3...
