Recrafting the neighbor-joining method
Background: The neighbor-joining method by Saitou and Nei is a widely used method for constructing phylogenetic trees. The formulation of the method gives rise to a canonical (n3)...

Parallel radial basis function methods for the global optimization of expensive functions
We introduce a master–worker framework for parallel global optimization of computationally expensive functions using response surface models. In particular, we parallelize two r...

Image restoration under wavelet-domain priors: an expectation-maximization approach
This paper describes an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for wavelet-based image restoration (deconvolution). The observed image is assumed to be a convolved (e.g., blurred...

Shape-Driven 3D Segmentation Using Spherical Wavelets
Abstract. This paper presents a novel active surface segmentation algorithm using a multiscale shape representation and prior. We define a parametric model of a surface using spher...

Reinforcement learning in the presence of rare events
We consider the task of reinforcement learning in an environment in which rare significant events occur independently of the actions selected by the controlling agent. If these ev...
