Interactive digital matting, the process of extracting a foreground object from an image based on limited user input, is an important task in image and video editing. From a compu...
We present an interior-point penalty method for nonlinear programming (NLP), where the merit function consists of a piecewise linear penalty function (PLPF) and an 2-penalty functi...
A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...
Textual-case based reasoning (TCBR) systems where the problem and solution are in free text form are hard to evaluate. In the absence of class information, domain experts are neede...
