Joint space-frequency segmentation is a relatively new image compression technique that finds the rate-distortion optimal representation of an image from a large set of possible s...
Abstract. We present a new method for computing an optimal deformation between two arbitrary surfaces embedded in Euclidean 3-dimensional space. Our main contribution is in buildin...
In this paper we show how the classical job-shop scheduling problem can be modeled as a special class of acyclic timed automata. Finding an optimal schedule corresponds, then, to n...
Heuristic Algorithms (HA) are very widely used to tackle practical problems in operations research. They are simple, easy to understand and inspire confidence. Many of these HAs a...
Widespread adoption of reconfigurable devices requires system level synthesis techniques to take an application written in a high level language and map it to the reconfigurable d...
