Flexible self-healing gradients
Self-healing gradients are distributed estimates of the distance from each device in a network to the nearest device designated as a source, and are used in many pervasive computi...

Variance Reduction Techniques for Gradient Estimates in Reinforcement Learning
Policy gradient methods for reinforcement learning avoid some of the undesirable properties of the value function approaches, such as policy degradation (Baxter and Bartlett, 2001...

Single-Image Optical Center Estimation from Vignetting and Tangential Gradient Symmetry
In this paper, we propose a method for estimating the optical center of a camera given only a single image with vignetting. This is accomplished by identifying the center of the...
