Globally-Optimal Greedy Algorithms for Tracking a Variable Number of Objects
We analyze the computational problem of multi-object tracking in video sequences. We formulate the problem using a cost function that requires estimating the number of tracks, as ...

Solving Log-Determinant Optimization Problems by a Newton-CG Primal Proximal Point Algorithm
We propose a Newton-CG primal proximal point algorithm for solving large scale log-determinant optimization problems. Our algorithm employs the essential ideas of the proximal poi...

Exploiting Multiple Secondary Reinforcers in Policy Gradient Reinforcement Learning
Most formulations of Reinforcement Learning depend on a single reinforcement reward value to guide the search for the optimal policy solution. If observation of this reward is rar...
