Image Recognition with Occlusions
We study the problem of how to detect \interesting objects" appeared in a given image, I. Our approach is to treat it as a function approximation problem based on an over-redu...

Smoothing by mollifiers. Part I: semi-infinite optimization
We show that a compact feasible set of a standard semi-infinite optimization problem can be approximated arbitrarily well by a level set of a single smooth function with certain r...
