Parallel software for solving the quadratic program arising in training support vector machines for classification problems is introduced. The software implements an iterative dec...
Despite the ability of current GPU processors to treat heavy parallel computation tasks, its use for solving medical image segmentation problems is still not fully exploited and re...
We study the forward and backward substitution phases of a sparse multifrontal factorization. These phases are often neglected in papers on sparse direct factorization but, in man...

Graph cuts methods are at the core of many state-of-theart algorithms in computer vision due to their efficiency in computing globally optimal solutions. In this paper, we solve t...
Recent years have seen growth in the number of algorithms designed to solve challenging simulation-based nonlinear optimization problems. One such algorithm is the Trust-Region Par...
