Although queueing models have long been used to model the performance of computer systems, they are out of favor with practitioners, because they have a reputation for requiring u...
— A learning machine is called singular if its Fisher information matrix is singular. Almost all learning machines used in information processing are singular, for example, layer...
We present a modified photon mapping algorithm capable of running entirely on GPUs. Our implementation uses breadth-first photon tracing to distribute photons using the GPU. The...

A new information-theoretic approach is presented for finding the pose of an object in an image. The technique does not require information about the surface properties of the ob...
In timed, zero-sum games, the goal is to maximize the probability of winning, which is not necessarily the same as maximizing our expected reward. We consider cumulative intermedi...
