A direct approach for parametric estimation of 2D affine deformations between compound shapes is proposed. It provides the result as a least-square solution of a linear system of ...
The embedded-block coding with optimized truncation (EBCOT), which consists of a bit-plane coder (BPC) and a binary arithmetic coder (BAC), is the bottleneck in realizing a high-p...
We present a discrete spectral framework for the sparse or cardinality-constrained solution of a generalized Rayleigh quotient. This NPhard combinatorial optimization problem is c...
We introduce an expectation maximizationtype (EM) algorithm for maximum likelihood optimization of conditional densities. It is applicable to hidden variable models where the dist...
We model budget-constrained keyword bidding in sponsored search auctions as a stochastic multiple-choice knapsack problem (S-MCKP) and design an algorithm to solve S-MCKP and the ...
