— In this paper, a new method is proposed to evaluate the reliability of stochastic mechanical systems. This technique is based on the combination of the probabilistic transforma...
In this paper, we propose the novel concept of probabilistic design for multimedia systems and a methodology to quickly explore such design space at an early design stage. The pro...
In this paper, we propose an acceleration technique of the adaptive filtering scheme called adaptive proximal forward-backward splitting method. For accelerating the convergence ...
A system for the acquisition, storage, indexing, and retrieval of map images is presented. The input to this system are raster images of separate map layers and map composites. A ...
We begin by observing that (discrete-time) QuasiBirth-Death Processes (QBDs) are equivalent, in a precise sense, to (discrete-time) probabilistic 1-Counter Automata (p1CAs), and b...
