Classic direct mechanisms require full type (or utility) revelation from participating agents, something that can be very difficult in practical multi-attribute settings. In this...
Space-varying convolution often arises in the modeling or restoration of images captured by optical imaging systems. For example, in applications such as microscopy or photography...

We propose an algorithm for the hierarchical aggregation of observations in dissemination-based, distributed traffic information systems. Instead of transmitting observed paramete...
The two-band discrete wavelet transform (DWT) provides an octave-band analysis in the frequency domain, but this might not be "optimal" for a given signal. The discrete w...
We consider derivative free methods based on sampling approaches for nonlinear optimization problems where derivatives of the objective function are not available and cannot be dir...
