Simulated annealing based standard cell placement for VLSI designs has long been acknowledged as a compute-intensive process. All previous work in parallel simulated annealing bas...
We propose a method for estimating confidence regions around shapes predicted from partial observations, given a statistical shape model. Our method relies on the estimation of the...
Programming heterogeneous parallel computer systems is notoriously difficult, but MIMD models have proven to be portable across multi-core processors, clusters, and massively paral...
One of the difficulties to adapt MDPs for the control of cooperative multi-agent systems, is the complexity issued from Decentralized MDPs. Moreover, existing approaches can not ...
In this paper, a novel hybrid algorithm is presented for the fast construction and high-quality rendering of visual hulls. We combine the strengths of two complementary hardware-a...
