We study the problem of projecting a distribution onto (or finding a maximum likelihood distribution among) Markov networks of bounded tree-width. By casting it as the combinatori...
The problem of global solution of Fredholm integral equations is studied. This means that one seeks to approximate the full solution function (as opposed to the local problem, whe...
Image matching has been a central research topic in computer vision over the last decades. Typical approaches for correspondence involve matching features between images. In this p...
How does one repeatedly choose actions so as to be fairest to the multiple beneficiaries of those actions? We examine approaches to discovering sequences of actions for which the...
—Despite the range of applications and successes of evolutionary algorithms, expensive fitness computations often form a critical performance bottleneck. A preferred method of r...
