We propose a method to find candidate 2D articulated model configurations by searching for locally optimal configurations under a weak but computationally manageable fitness functi...
In this paper, we investigate the coverage problem in wireless sensor networks using a game theory method. We assume that nodes are randomly scattered in a sensor field and the goa...
We present three localized techniques for broadcasting in large scale ad hoc networks, i.e., for the problem of disseminating a message from a source node to all the nodes in the ...

The elastic-mode formulation of the problem of minimizing a nonlinear function subject to equilibrium constraints has appealing local properties in that, for a finite value of the...
Many optimization processes encounter a problem in efficiently reaching a global minimum or a near global minimum. Traditional methods such as Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm and t...
