Scalable robust hypothesis tests using graphical models
Traditional binary hypothesis testing relies on the precise knowledge of the probability density of an observed random vector conditioned on each hypothesis. However, for many app...

Adaptive Simulated Annealing: A Near-optimal Connection between Sampling and Counting
We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...

Integrating a Discrete Motion Model into GMM Based Background Subtraction
GMM based algorithms have become the de facto standard for background subtraction in video sequences, mainly because of their ability to track multiple background distributions, w...
