Metropolis light transport
We present a new Monte Carlo method for solving the light transport problem, inspired by the Metropolis sampling method in computational physics. To render an image, we generate a...

Decrypting classical cipher text using Markov chain Monte Carlo
In this paper, we present the use of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods to attack the classical ciphers. We use frequency analysis as our basic tool. First we investigate the...

Metropolis-Hasting techniques for finite-element-based registration
In this paper, we focus on the design of Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques in a statistical registration framework based on finite element basis (FE). Due to the use of FE basis...
