Elliptical slice sampling
Many probabilistic models introduce strong dependencies between variables using a latent multivariate Gaussian distribution or a Gaussian process. We present a new Markov chain Mo...

Linear kernels for (connected) dominating set on H-minor-free graphs
We give the first linear kernels for DOMINATING SET and CONNECTED DOMINATING SET problems on graphs excluding a fixed graph H as a minor. In other words, we give polynomial time...

Path-wise estimators and cross-path regressions: an application to evaluating portfolio strategies
Recently developed dual techniques allow us to evaluate a given sub-optimal dynamic portfolio policy by using the policy to construct an upper bound on the optimal value function....

Contour Grouping Based on Local Symmetry
The paper deals with grouping of edges to contours of shapes using only local symmetry and continuity. Shape skeletons are used to generate the search space for a version of the M...
