Dynamic programming in a heuristically confined state space: a stochastic resource-constrained project scheduling application
The Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem(RCPSP) is a significant challenge in highly regulated industries, such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, where a large numb...

Hierarchical Monitoring of People's Behaviors in Complex Environments Using Multiple Cameras
We present a distributed, surveillance system that works in large and complex indoor environments. To track and recognize behaviors of people, we propose the use of the Hidden Mar...

SPAR: stochastic programming with adversarial recourse
We consider a general adversarial stochastic optimization model. Our model involves the design of a system that an adversary may subsequently attempt to destroy or degrade. We int...

Mixing time for the solid-on-solid model
We analyze the mixing time of a natural local Markov chain (the Glauber dynamics) on configurations of the solid-onsolid model of statistical physics. This model has been proposed...

Blind restoration of blurred photographs via AR modelling and MCMC
We propose a new image and blur prior model, based on nonstationary autoregressive (AR) models, and use these to blindly deconvolve blurred photographic images, using the Gibbs sa...
