High-Quality Adaptive Soft Shadow Mapping
The recent soft shadow mapping technique [GBP06] allows the rendering in real-time of convincing soft shadows on complex and dynamic scenes using a single shadow map. While attrac...

Model Selection Through Sparse Maximum Likelihood Estimation
We consider the problem of estimating the parameters of a Gaussian or binary distribution in such a way that the resulting undirected graphical model is sparse. Our approach is to...

Robust optimization of contaminant sensor placement for community water systems
We present a series of related robust optimization models for placing sensors in municipal water networks to detect contaminants that are maliciously or accidentally injected. We f...
