In this paper, we tackle the problem of object detection and tracking in a new and challenging domain of wide area surveillance. This problem poses several challenges: large camera...
Probabilistic planning problems are typically modeled as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). MDPs, while an otherwise expressive model, allow only for sequential, non-durative action...
This tutorial paper overviews recent developments in optimization-based approaches for resource allocation problems in wireless systems. We begin by overviewing important results i...
Assume a network (V, E) where a subset of the nodes in V are active. We consider the problem of selecting a set of k active nodes that best explain the observed activation state, ...
In this paper, we define and study a novel search problem: Comparative Web Search (CWS). The task of CWS is to seek relevant and comparative information from the Web to help users...
