A Bayesian Multiresolution Independence Test for Continuous Variables
In this paper we present a method of computing the posterior probability of conditional independence of two or more continuous variables from data, examined at several resolutions...

Genetically controlled random search: a global optimization method for continuous multidimensional functions
A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...

Robust Point Matching for Nonrigid Shapes by Preserving Local Neighborhood Structures
In previous work on point matching, a set of points is often treated as an instance of a joint distribution to exploit global relationships in the point set. For nonrigid shapes, h...
