This paper deals with distributed demodulation of space-time transmissions of a common message from a multiantenna access point (AP) to a wireless sensor network. Based on local me...
Many recent techniques for low-level vision problems such as image denoising are formulated in terms of Markov random field (MRF) or conditional random field (CRF) models. Nonethel...
