The crossover bias theory for bloat [18] is a recent result which predicts that bloat is caused by the sampling of short, unfit programs. This theory is clear and simple, but it ...

Lagrangian minimization is one of the most powerful tools for Rate-Distortion optimal coding mode selection. However, in the latest video compression standard H.264/AVC, the total...
An optimizing compiler has a hard time to generate a code which will perform at top speed for an arbitrary data set size. In general, the low level optimization process must take i...
We present a novel algorithm for unsupervised segmentation of natural images that harnesses the principle of minimum description length (MDL). Our method is based on observations ...

There are many mode decisions in the video coding process that are used to optimize the performance in terms of the bit rate, the speed and the quality of the decoded video. We de...
