We propose a novel global pose estimation method to detect body parts of articulated objects in images based on non-tree graph models. There are two kinds of edges defined in the ...
A large number of problems in production planning and scheduling, location, transportation, finance, and engineering design require that decisions be made in the presence of uncer...
A new active set algorithm for minimizing quadratic functions with separable convex constraints is proposed by combining the conjugate gradient method with the projected gradient. ...
Similarity matrices generated from many applications may not be positive semidefinite, and hence can't fit into the kernel machine framework. In this paper, we study the prob...
A critical issue in the design of routing protocols for wireless sensor networks is the efficient utilization of resources such as scarce bandwidth and limited energy supply. Many ...
