This paper is concerned with the design of goal-oriented scheduling policies that deal with multiple goals on production parallel systems. Several objective models are compared, i...
We introduce a new EM framework in which it is possible not only to optimize the model parameters but also the number of model components. A key feature of our approach is that we...
Snakes, or active contours, are used extensively in computer
vision and image processing applications, particularly
to locate object boundaries. Problems associated with
initial...
