Variational Bayesian Expectation-Maximization (VBEM), an approximate inference method for probabilistic models based on factorizing over latent variables and model parameters, has ...
Object replication is a common approach to enhance the availability of distributed data-intensive services and storage systems. Many such systems are known to have highly skewed o...
In many areas of software engineering, empirical studies are playing an increasingly important role. This stems from the fact that software technologies are often based on heurist...
We introduce methods for optimizing physics-based walking controllers for robustness to uncertainty. Many unknown factors, such as external forces, control torques, and user contr...
In a wireless multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, transmit antenna selection is an effective means of achieving good performance with low complexity. We consider spatial ...
