We present an active geodesic contour model in which we constrain the evolving active contour to be a geodesic with respect to a weighted edge-based energy through its entire evol...
a growing need to study abstract problems in distributed multi-agent systems in a systematic way, as well as to provide a qualitative mathematical framework in which to compare po...
Clustering is an old research topic in data mining and machine learning communities. Most of the traditional clustering methods can be categorized local or global ones. In this pa...
We consider the problem of sequential decentralized detection, a problem that entails several interdependent choices: the choice of a stopping rule (specifying the sample size), a...

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...
