Real-time scene text localization and recognition
An end-to-end real-time scene text localization and recognition method is presented. The real-time performance is achieved by posing the character detection problem as an efficie...

Transition models as an incremental approach for problem solving in evolutionary algorithms
This paper proposes an incremental approach for building solutions using evolutionary computation. It presents a simple evolutionary model called a Transition model in which parti...

Evolutionary Search for Smooth Maps in Motor Control Unit Calibration
We study the combinatorial optimization task of choosing the smoothest map from a given family of maps, which is motivated from motor control unit calibration. The problem is of a ...

A Quasi-Newton Approach to Nonsmooth Convex Optimization Problems in Machine Learning
We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...
