On Iterative Regularization and Its Application
Many existing techniques for image restoration can be expressed in terms of minimizing a particular cost function. Iterative regularization methods are a novel variation on this th...

Auditory-Based Spectral Amplitude Estimators for Speech Enhancement
We propose a new family of Bayesian estimators for speech enhancement where the cost function includes both a power law and a weighting factor. The parameters of the cost function,...

Matching two clusters of points extracted from satellite images
Image matching is a stage one performs as soon as one has two images of the same scene, taken from two different points of view. Matching these images is to find the mathematical ...

RTDT: A static QoS manager, RT scheduling, HW/SW partitioning CAD tool
The Hardware (HW)/Software (SW) partitioning/scheduling relies on two subtasks : the cost function and the real time (RT) analysis. Besides these two subtasks, the proposed generi...

Flow trees for vertex-capacitated networks
Given a graph G = (V, E) with a cost function c(S) ≥ 0 ∀S ⊆ V , we want to represent all possible min-cut values between pairs of vertices i and j. We consider also the spec...

The Linear Ordering Problem with cumulative costs
Several optimization problems require finding a permutation of a given set of items that minimizes a certain cost function. These problems are naturally modelled in graph-theory t...
