We introduce a hierarchical partitioning scheme of the Euclidean plane, called circular partitions. Such a partition consists of a hierarchy of convex polygons, each having small ...
Assume that two points p and q are given and a finite ordered set of simple polygons, all in the same plane; the basic version of a touring-a-sequence-of-polygons problem (TPP) is...
Learning graphical models with hidden variables can offer semantic insights to complex data and lead to salient structured predictors without relying on expensive, sometime unatta...
This paper presents a stagewise least square (SLS) loss function for classification. It uses a least square form within each stage to approximate a bounded monotonic nonconvex los...
The problem of deriving joint policies for a group of agents that maximize some joint reward function can be modeled as a decentralized partially observable Markov decision proces...
