We present a primal-dual interior-point algorithm with a filter line-search method for nonlinear programming. Local and global convergence properties of this method were analyzed i...
The global search properties of heuristic search algorithms are not well understood. In this paper, we introduce a new metric, mobility, that quantifies the dispersion of local o...

Abstract. Solutions to non-linear least squares problems play an essential role in structure and motion problems in computer vision. The predominant approach for solving these prob...
— We present an algorithm for an event based approach to the global optimal control of nonlinear systems with coarsely quantized state measurement. The quantized measurements ind...
We present a registration algorithm for pairs of deforming and partial range scans that addresses the challenges of non-rigid registration within a single non-linear optimization....
