One of the most severe problems in hybrid video coding is its block-based approach, which leads to distortions called blocking artifacts. These artifacts affect not only the subje...
We give a practical and provably good Monte Carlo algorithm for approximating center points. Let P be a set of n points in IRd . A point c ∈ IRd is a β-center point of P if eve...

For non-rigid registration, the objects in medical images are usually treated as a single deformable body with homogeneous stiffness distribution. However, this assumption is inval...
The increasing availability of multi-core and multiprocessor architectures provides new opportunities for improving the performance of many computer simulations. Markov Chain Mont...

Abstract. In this paper we develop a localized value-ordering heuristic for distributed resource allocation problems. We show how this value ordering heuristics can be used to achi...
