Optimizing Control Variate Estimators for Rendering
We present the Optimizing Control Variate (OCV) estimator, a new estimator for Monte Carlo rendering. Based upon a deterministic sampling framework, OCV allows multiple importance...

On optimal quantization rules for some sequential decision problems
We consider the problem of sequential decentralized detection, a problem that entails several interdependent choices: the choice of a stopping rule (specifying the sample size), a...

Nearly optimal neural network stabilization of bipedal standing using genetic algorithm
In this work, stability control of bipedal standing is investigated. The biped is simplified as an inverted pendulum with a foot-link. The controller consists of a general regres...

Bayesian model search for mixture models based on optimizing variational bounds
When learning a mixture model, we suffer from the local optima and model structure determination problems. In this paper, we present a method for simultaneously solving these prob...
