We investigate the conception that the sample variance of the control variate (CV) should be used for estimating the optimal linear CV weight, even when the CV variance is known. ...
Abstract-- We introduce a distributed estimation algorithm for use by a collection of stochastically interacting agents. Each agent has both a discrete value and an estimate of the...
We develop an optical flow estimation framework that focuses on motion estimation over time formulated in a Dynamic Bayesian Network. It realizes a spatiotemporal integration of ...

Estimating the rate of Web page updates helps in improving the Web crawler’s scheduling policy. But, most of the Web sources are autonomous and updated independently. Clients li...
In this paper, a novel method for estimating a precise object region using a given rough object region is proposed. For determining whether each pixel belongs to an object or not,...
