We introduce a new approach to three important problems in ray tracing: antialiasing, distributed light sources, and fuzzy reflections of lights and other surfaces. For antialias...
An algorithm, described by Sedgewick, finds the distance between the closest pair of n given points in a plane using a variant of mergesort. This takes O(n log n) time. To prove t...
We consider the problem of solving a nonhomogeneous infinite horizon Markov Decision Process (MDP) problem in the general case of potentially multiple optimal first period polic...

For short-term forecasting of wind generation, a necessary step is to model the function for the conversion of meteorological variables (mainly wind speed) to power production. Su...

Abstract—Inspired by the recent development of optical queueing theory, in this paper we study a class of multistage interconnection networks (MINs), called twister networks. Unl...
