We develop a penalized kernel smoothing method for the problem of selecting nonzero elements of the conditional precision matrix, known as conditional covariance selection. This p...
Given two sets of points in the plane, we are interested in locating a highway h such that an objective function on the city distance between points of the two sets is minimized (w...
Learning the common structure shared by a set of supervised tasks is an important practical and theoretical problem. Knowledge of this structure may lead to better generalization ...

Many robotics tasks require a robot to share the same workspace with humans. In such settings, it is important that the robot performs in such a way that does not cause distress t...
As the CMOS technology enters the deep submicron design era, the lateral inter-wire coupling capacitance becomes the dominant part of load capacitance and makes RC delay on the bu...
