We present a novel message passing algorithm for approximating the MAP problem in graphical models. The algorithm is similar in structure to max-product but unlike max-product it ...
Background: As a consequence of the evolutionary process, data collected from related species tend to be similar. This similarity by descent can obscure subtler signals in the dat...
Hierarchical scheduling has been proposed as a scheduling technique to achieve aggregate resource partitioning among related groups of threads and applications in uniprocessor and...
This article surveys three techniques for enhancing heuristic game-tree search pioneered in the author's Othello program Logistello, which dominated the computer Othello scen...
-- This paper proposes a Wyner-Ziv / H.264 transcoder that enables low cost video applications. The proposed solution supports video encoding on resource constrained devices such a...
