Abstract. We present a novel statistical-model-based segmentation algorithm that addresses a recurrent problem in appearance model fitting and model-based segmentation: the "s...
This paper proposes a novel method for blindly separating unobservable independent component (IC) signals based on the use of a genetic algorithm. It is intended for its applicati...
We propose a new top down search-based algorithm for compiling AND/OR Multi-Valued Decision Diagrams (AOMDDs), as representations of the optimal set of solutions for constraint opt...

We address the problem of coordinating the plans and schedules for a team of agents in an uncertain and dynamic environment. Bounded rationality, bounded communication, subjectivi...
In this paper, we develop heuristics for finding good starting points when solving large-scale nonlinear constrained optimization problems (COPs). We focus on nonlinear programmi...
