The objective of this paper is twofold. The first part provides further insight in the statistical properties of the Welch power spectrum estimator. A major drawback of the Welch m...
Spatially-discrete Markov random fields (MRFs) and spatially-continuous variational approaches are ubiquitous in low-level vision, including image restoration, segmentation, opti...
Speed scaling is a power management technique that involves dynamically changing the speed of a processor. This gives rise to dual-objective scheduling problems, where the operati...
