In this paper, a primal dual method for general possible nonconvex nonlinear optimization problems is considered. The method is an exterior point type method which means that it p...
Newton’s method is a basic tool in numerical analysis and numerous applications, including operations research and data mining. We survey the history of the method, its main ide...
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...

Abstract. This paper describes a novel approach to recovering a parametric deformation that optimally registers one image to another. The method proceeds by constructing a global c...
