Smoothing-based Optimization
We propose an efficient method for complex optimization problems that often arise in computer vision. While our method is general and could be applied to various tasks, it was mai...

Minimum range approach to blind partial simultaneous separation of bounded sources: Contrast and discriminacy properties
The blind source separation (BSS) problem is often solved by maximizing objective functions reflecting the statistical independence between outputs. Since global maximization may...

Efficient Optimization of Information-Theoretic Exploration in SLAM
We present a novel method for information-theoretic exploration, leveraging recent work on mapping and localization. We describe exploration as the constrained optimization proble...
