Parametric Query Optimization for Linear and Piecewise Linear Cost Functions
The cost of a query plan depends on many parameters, such as predicate selectivities and available memory, whose values may not be known at optimization time. Parametric query opt...

Discrete Optimization of the Multiphase Piecewise Constant Mumford-Shah Functional
Abstract. The Mumford-Shah model has been one of the most powerful models in image segmentation and denoising. The optimization of the multiphase Mumford-Shah energy functional has...

Tracking value function dynamics to improve reinforcement learning with piecewise linear function approximation
Reinforcement learning algorithms can become unstable when combined with linear function approximation. Algorithms that minimize the mean-square Bellman error are guaranteed to co...

Hierarchical morse complexes for piecewise linear 2-manifolds
We present algorithms for constructing a hierarchy of increasingly coarse Morse complexes that decompose a piecewise linear 2-manifold. While Morse complexes are defined only in t...

Piecewise Constant Feedback Control of Piecewise Affine Gene Network Models
Abstract. The use of hybrid dynamical systems to model gene regulation is impelled by the switch-like behaviour of the latter. Piecewise affine differential equations is one of the...
