We present an interior-point penalty method for nonlinear programming (NLP), where the merit function consists of a piecewise linear penalty function (PLPF) and an 2-penalty functi...
We propose an efficient method for complex optimization problems that often arise in computer vision. While our method is general and could be applied to various tasks, it was mai...
This paper investigates the use of the Bayesian inference for devising an unsupervised sketch rendering procedure. As likelihood model of this inference, we exploit the recent sta...
In most microphone array applications, it is essential to localize sources in a noisy, reverberant environment. It has been shown that computing the steered response power(SRP) is...
Because of the growing use of multimedia content over Internet, Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) has recently received a lot of interest. While accurate search techniques base...
