A GIS-like training algorithm for log-linear models with hidden variables
Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) are often estimated using an entropy based criterion in combination with Generalized Iterative Scaling (GIS). GIS offers, upon others, the immedi...

A new heuristic approach for non-convex optimization problems
In this work a new optimization method, called the heuristic Kalman algorithm (HKA), is presented. This new algorithm is proposed as an alternative approach for solving continuous,...

Feature-based control of visibility error: a multi-resolution clustering algorithm for global illumination
In this paper we introduce a new approach to controlling error in hierarchical clustering algorithms for radiosity. The new method ensures that just enough work is done to meet th...

SDR: a better trigger for adaptive variance scaling in normal EDAs
Recently, advances have been made in continuous, normal– distribution–based Estimation–of–Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) by scaling the variance up from the maximum–like...
