This paper introduces a novel energy minimization method, namely iterated cross entropy with partition strategy (ICEPS), into the Markov random field theory. The solver, which is...
Abstract--Multiple instance learning (MIL) is a recently researched technique used for learning a target concept in the presence of noise. Previously, a random set framework for mu...
Consider a network of unreliable links, each of which comes with a certain price and reliability. Given a fixed budget, which links should be bought in order to maximize the syste...
Some real-world problems are partially decomposable, in that they can be decomposed into a set of coupled subproblems, that are each relatively easy to solve. However, when these ...
—This paper introduces an algorithm for direct search of control policies in continuous-state discrete-action Markov decision processes. The algorithm looks for the best closed-l...
