We develop an improved cost function to be used in simulated annealing followed by hill-climbing to find Boolean functions satisfying multiple desirable criteria such as high nonli...
Abstract. A materialized view is a certain synopsis structure precomputed from one or more data sets (called base tables) in order to facilitate various queries on the data. When t...
Fundamental to any graph cut segmentation methods is the assignment of edge weights. The existing solutions typically use gaussian, exponential or rectangular cost functions with ...
A scheduling scheme for MIMO systems which has the capability of obtaining multiuser diversity gain and controlling the link connection ratio among users simultaneously is proposed...

— We present a new optimization procedure which is particularly suited for the solution of second-order kernel methods like e.g. Kernel-PCA. Common to these methods is that there...
In this paper, an efficient cost function for mode decision in H.264/AVC is proposed. The proposed cost function is based on integer transform coefficients, where the rate and the...
Obtaining a digital model of a real-world 3D scene is a challenging task pursued by computer vision and computer graphics. Given an initial approximate 3D model, a popular refinem...

In this paper we study a pursuit problem in the context of a wireless sensor network, where the pursuer (i.e., mobile sink) trying to capture a pursuee (i.e., tracked object), movi...
