In a sparse-representation-based face recognition scheme, the desired dictionary should have good representational power (i.e., being able to span the subspace of all faces) while...
Abstract-- In this paper we study different distributed estimation schemes for stochastic discrete time linear systems where the communication between the sensors and the estimatio...
Neural gas (NG) constitutes a very robust clustering algorithm which can be derived as stochastic gradient descent from a cost function closely connected to the quantization error...

In the age of electronic commerce, with low-cost information access, it has been recognized that a bundle search in a combinatorial trade is very valuable for buyers. Optimal trav...
Models for sequential decision making under uncertainty (e.g., Markov decision processes,or MDPs) have beenstudied in operations research for decades. The recent incorporation of ...
