We consider a class of learning problems that involve a structured sparsityinducing norm defined as the sum of -norms over groups of variables. Whereas a lot of effort has been pu...
Column generation algorithms have been specially designed for solving mathematical programs with a huge number of variables. Unfortunately, this method suffers from slow convergen...
A geometric graph is a labeled graph whose vertices are points in the 2D plane with an isomorphism invariant under geometric transformations such as translation, rotation, and scal...
Curve evolution implementations [3][23] [25] of the Mumford-Shah functional [16] are of broad interest in image segmentation. These implementations, however, have initialization p...
