In their pioneering paper [4], Gallager et al. introduced a distributed algorithm for constructing the minimum-weight spanning tree (MST), many authors have suggested ways to enhan...
An autonomous variational inference algorithm for arbitrary graphical models requires the ability to optimize variational approximations over the space of model parameters as well...
We present a framework for computing generalized distance transforms and skeletons of two-dimensional objects using graphics hardware. Our method is based on the concept of footpr...
An entire emergency department of a general hospital is simulated to examine patient flows. First, times needed for both outpatients and patients arriving via ambulance to be proc...
