An Asymptotic Analysis of the Mean First Passage Time for Narrow Escape Problems: Part I: Two-Dimensional Domains
The mean first passage time (MFPT) is calculated for a Brownian particle in a bounded two-dimensional domain that contains N small nonoverlapping absorbing windows on its boundary....

Approximation with Active B-Spline Curves and Surfaces
An active contour model for parametric curve and surface approximation is presented. The active curve or surface adapts to the model shape to be approximated in an optimization al...

Smooth SQP Methods for Mathematical Programs with Nonlinear Complementarity Constraints
Mathematical programs with nonlinear complementarity constraints are reformulated using better-posed but nonsmooth constraints. We introduce a class of functions, parameterized by...

A pareto following variation operator for fast-converging multiobjective evolutionary algorithms
One of the major difficulties when applying Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms (MOEA) to real world problems is the large number of objective function evaluations. Approximate...

Fast space-variant elliptical filtering using box splines
The efficient realization of linear space-variant (non-convolution) filters is a challenging computational problem in image processing. In this paper, we demonstrate that it is po...
