Many interactive image segmentation approaches use an objective function which includes appearance models as an unknown variable. Since the resulting optimization problem is NP-har...
Abstract—We consider the problem of jointly optimizing channel pairing, channel-user assignment, and power allocation in a single-relay multiple-access system. The optimization o...
We compare the performance of systems consisting of one large cluster containing q processors with systems where processors are grouped into k clusters containing u processors eac...
hsp and hspr are two recent planners that search the state-space using an heuristic function extracted from Strips encodings. hsp does a forward search from the initial state reco...
We present the Optimizing Control Variate (OCV) estimator, a new estimator for Monte Carlo rendering. Based upon a deterministic sampling framework, OCV allows multiple importance...
