Abstract. We present a new derivative-free algorithm, ORBIT, for unconstrained local optimization of computationally expensive functions. A trust-region framework using interpolati...

—A method is described for selecting the optimal focus measure with respect to gray-level noise from a given set of focus measures in passive autofocusing and depth-from-focus ap...
Abstract--The ranking problem has become increasingly important in modern applications of statistical methods in automated decision making systems. In particular, we consider a for...
— The chaos game, in which a moving point is repeatedly averaged toward randomly selected vertices of a triangle, is one method of generating the fractal called the Sierpinski tr...
POMDPs and their decentralized multiagent counterparts, DEC-POMDPs, offer a rich framework for sequential decision making under uncertainty. Their computational complexity, howeve...
