Statistical Shape Models Using Elastic-String Representations
Abstract. To develop statistical models for shapes, we utilize an elastic string representation where curves (denoting shapes) can bend and locally stretch (or compress) to optimal...

Ant-based approach for determining the change of measure in importance sampling
Importance Sampling is a potentially powerful variance reduction technique to speed up simulations where the objective depends on the occurrence of rare events. However, it is cru...

Optimal utility based multi-user throughput allocation subject to throughput constraints
— We consider the problem of scheduling multiple users sharing a time-varying wireless channel. (As an example, this is a model of scheduling in 3G wireless technologies, such as...

StyP-Boost: A Bilinear Boosting Algorithm for Learning Style-Parameterized Classifiers
We introduce a novel bilinear boosting algorithm, which extends the multi-class boosting framework of JointBoost to optimize a bilinear objective function. This allows style param...
