In this paper, we develop a novel online algorithm based on the Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) samplers framework for posterior inference in Dirichlet Process Mixtures (DPM) (DelMor...
Basis Pursuit (BP) finds a minimum ℓ1-norm vector z that satisfies the underdetermined linear system Mz = b, where the matrix M and vector b are given. Lately, BP has attracte...
Segmentation of video objects from background is a popular computer vision problem and has many important applications. Most existing methods are either computationally expensive ...
The increasing amount of communication between individuals in e-formats (e.g. email, Instant messaging and the Web) has motivated computational research in social network analysis...
