We present a framework for categorical shape recognition. The coarse shape of an object is captured by a multiscale blob decomposition, representing the compact and elongated part...

We analyze the output process of finite capacity birth-death Markovian queues. We develop a formula for the asymptotic variance rate of the form + vi where is the rate of outputs...

We propose to use approximations of shape metrics, such as the Hausdorff distance, to define similarity measures between shapes. Our approximations being continuous and different...

There has been substantial progress with formal models for sequential decision making by individual agents using the Markov decision process (MDP). However, similar treatment of m...
