The Markov chain approximation method is an effective and widely used approach for computing optimal values and controls for stochastic systems. It was extended to nonlinear (and p...
—In this paper we extend the class of MAP queueing networks to include blocking models, which are useful to describe the performance of service instances which have a limited con...

The solution of continuous and discrete-time Markovian models is still challenging mainly when we model large complex systems, for example, to obtain performance indexes of paralle...
Many approaches have been proposed to locate faces in an image. There are, however, two problems in previous facial shape models using feature points. First, the dimension of the s...
In a variety of disciplines such as social sciences, psychology, medicine and economics, the recorded data are considered to be noisy measurements of latent variables connected by...
