Wireless sensor networks have created new opportunities for data collection in a variety of scenarios, such as environmental and industrial, where we expect data to be temporally ...
Organizing digital images into semantic categories is imperative for effective browsing and retrieval. In large image collections, an efficient algorithm is crucial to quickly cat...

We extend the well-known BFGS quasi-Newton method and its memory-limited variant LBFGS to the optimization of nonsmooth convex objectives. This is done in a rigorous fashion by ge...
Abstract. In many classification problems, and in particular in medical domains, it is common to have an unbalanced class distribution. This pose problems to classifiers as they ...
Local search algorithms are one of the effective methods for solving hard combinatorial problems. However, a serious problem of this approach is that the search often traps at loca...
