Energy functional minimization is a popular technique for medical image segmentation. The segmentation must be initialized, weights for competing terms of an energy functional must...
: Object-oriented programs are difficult to optimize because they execute many dynamically-dispatched calls. These calls cannot easily be eliminated because the compiler does not k...
Escape analysis can improve the speed and memory efficiency of garbage collected languages by allocating objects to the call stack, but an offline analysis will potentially interf...
