The problem of extracting continuous structures from noisy or cluttered images is a difficult one. Successful extraction depends critically on the ability to balance prior constra...
In recent years there has been a growing interest in studying evolutionary algorithms for dynamic optimization problems due to its importance in real world applications. Several a...
We present the Optimizing Control Variate (OCV) estimator, a new estimator for Monte Carlo rendering. Based upon a deterministic sampling framework, OCV allows multiple importance...

Generally, evolutionary algorithms require a large number of evaluations of the objective function in order to obtain a good solution. This paper presents a simple approach to sav...
For a mobile robot to move in a known environment and operate successfully, first it needs to robustly determine its initial position and orientation relative to the map, and then ...
