—Data storage has become an important issue in sensor networks as a large amount of collected data need to be archived for future information retrieval. Storage nodes are introdu...
A frequently encountered problem in decision making is the following review problem: review a large number of objects and select a small number of the best ones. An example is sel...
— In this paper we develop a new dual decomposition method for optimizing a sum of convex objective functions corresponding to multiple agents but with coupled constraints. In ou...
Abstract. The trace quotient problem arises in many applications in pattern classification and computer vision, e.g., manifold learning, low-dimension embedding, etc. The task is ...
This paper tackles an important aspect of the variational problems involving active contours, which has been largely overlooked so far: the optimization by gradient flows. Classic...
