Chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) and other manufacturing steps in very deep-submicron VLSI have varying effects on device and interconnect features, depending on the local ...
In this paper, we propose a new linear programming based timing driven placement framework for high performance designs. Our LP framework is mainly net-based, but it takes advanta...
This study evaluates a robust parametric modeling approach for computer-aided detection (CAD) of vertebrae column metastases in whole-body MRI. Our method involves constructing a m...

We consider the problem of learning a similarity function from a set of positive equivalence constraints, i.e. 'similar' point pairs. We define the similarity in informa...
The problem of obtaining the maximum a posteriori (map) estimate of a discrete random field is of fundamental importance in many areas of Computer Science. In this work, we build ...
