— Energy consumption is a main issue of concern in wireless networks. Energy minimization increases the time that networks’ nodes work properly without recharging or substituti...
We propose a general dual-fitting technique for analyzing online scheduling algorithms in the unrelated machines setting where the objective function involves weighted flow-time...
Active contours is a popular technique for image segmentation.
However, active contour tend to converge to the
closest local minimum of its energy function and often requires
a ...
The existing methods for offline training of cascade classifiers take a greedy search to optimize individual classifiers in the cascade, leading inefficient overall performance. W...
Recent results on stereo indicate that an accurate segmentation is crucial for obtaining faithful depth maps. Variational methods have successfully been applied to both image segm...
