Abstract-- Local convergence is a limitation of many optimization approaches for multimodal functions. For hybrid model learning, this can mean a compromise in accuracy. We develop...
When an isotropic object is accelerated by plane waves, its limiting speed is less or equal to the wave speed. We study the acceleration of anisotropic objects in classical wave-p...
Finding similar images in a large database is an important, but often computationally expensive, task. In this paper, we present a two-tier similar-image retrieval system with the...
