A merger is a probabilistic procedure which extracts the randomness out of any (arbitrarily correlated) set of random variables, as long as one of them is uniform. Our main result...
Consider the problem of estimating the -level set G = {x : f(x) } of an unknown d-dimensional density function f based on n independent observations X1, . . . , Xn from the densi...
With increasing design complexity, as well as continued scaling of supplies, the design and analysis of power/ground distribution networks poses a difficult problem in modern IC d...
This paper studies quantization error in the context of Matching Pursuit coded streams and proposes a new coefficient quantization scheme taking benefit of the Matching Pursuit pr...
Graph-cuts optimization is prevalent in vision and graphics problems. It is thus of great practical importance to parallelize the graph-cuts optimization using today’s ubiquitou...
