Approximation by Conic Splines
Abstract. We show that the complexity of a parabolic or conic spline approximating a sufficiently smooth curve with non-vanishing curvature to within Hausdorff distance ε is c1ε...

Efficient Polygonal Approximation of Digital Curves via Monte Carlo Optimization
A novel stochastic searching scheme based on the Monte Carlo optimization is presented for polygonal approximation (PA) problem. We propose to combine the split-and-merge based lo...

Dynamic Programming Approximations for Partially Observable Stochastic Games
Partially observable stochastic games (POSGs) provide a rich mathematical framework for planning under uncertainty by a group of agents. However, this modeling advantage comes wit...

Optimizing energy to minimize errors in dataflow graphs using approximate adders
Approximate arithmetic is a promising, new approach to lowenergy designs while tackling reliability issues. We present a method to optimally distribute a given energy budget among...

Simplifying mixture models through function approximation
Finite mixture model is a powerful tool in many statistical learning problems. In this paper, we propose a general, structure-preserving approach to reduce its model complexity, w...
