Global convergence of independent component analysis based on semidefinite programming relaxation
In the independent component analysis, polynomial functions of higher order statistics are often used as cost functions. However, such cost functions usually have many local minim...

Supervised Hypergraph Labeling
We address the problem of labeling individual datapoints given some knowledge about (small) subsets or groups of them. The knowledge we have for a group is the likelihood value fo...

Real-Time Regularized Ultrasound Elastography
—This paper introduces two real-time elastography techniques based on analytic minimization (AM) of regularized cost functions. The first method (1D AM) produces axial strain an...

Interactive Cost Configuration Over Decision Diagrams
In many AI domains such as product configuration, a user should interactively specify a solution that must satisfy a set of constraints. In such scenarios, offline compilation of ...

Blind Deconvolution Using A Normalized Sparsity Measure
Blind image deconvolution is an ill-posed problem that requires regularization to solve. However, many common forms of image prior used in this setting have a major drawback in th...

The Complexity of Equilibria in Cost Sharing Games
We study Congestion Games with non-increasing cost functions (Cost Sharing Games) from a complexity perspective and resolve their computational hardness, which has been an open que...

Satisfiability Modulo the Theory of Costs: Foundations and Applications
Abstract. We extend the setting of Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) by introducing a theory of costs C, where it is possible to model and reason about resource consumption and ...

Regular Cost Functions over Finite Trees
We develop the theory of regular cost functions over finite trees: a quantitative extension to the notion of regular languages of trees: Cost functions map each input (tree) to a v...

Generic Database Cost Models for Hierarchical Memory Systems
Accurate prediction of operator execution time is a prerequisite for database query optimization. Although extensively studied for conventional disk-based DBMSs, cost modeling in ...

Feedback-Feedforward Scheduling of Control Tasks
A scheduling architecture for real-time control tasks is proposed. The scheduler uses feedback from execution-time measurements and feedforward from workload changes to adjust the...
