On the Convergence of Bound Optimization Algorithms
Many practitioners who use EM and related algorithms complain that they are sometimes slow. When does this happen, and what can be done about it? In this paper, we study the gener...

Rate-distortion optimization for fast hierarchical B-picture transcoding
— an efficient rate-distortion (R-D) optimal method for transcoding hierarchical B-pictures is proposed in this paper. A new R-D model is presented for fast transcoding hierarchi...

Optimal Average Case Sorting on Arrays
Abstract. We present algorithms for sorting and routing on two-dimensional mesh-connected parallel architectures that are optimal on average. If one processor has many packets then...
