In this paper, we present a novel approach for detecting and removing pre-printed rule-lines from binary handwritten Arabic document images. The proposed technique is based on a d...
—Nonparametric belief propagation (NBP) is one of the best-known methods for cooperative localization in sensor networks. It is capable to provide information about location esti...
This paper presents a new adaptive graph-cut based move-making algorithm for energy minimization. Traditional move-making algorithms such as Expansion and Swap operate by searchin...
A hybrid algorithm is devised to boost the performance of complete search on under-constrained problems. We suggest to use random variable selection in combination with restarts, ...
Abstract. Iterated local search (ILS) is a powerful meta-heuristic algorithm applied to a large variety of combinatorial optimization problems. Contrary to evolutionary algorithms ...
