Stalls, due to mis-matches in communication rates, are a major performance obstacle in pipelined circuits. If the rate of data production is faster than the rate of consumption, t...
Clustering (or partitioning) is a crucial step between logic synthesis and physical design in the layout of a large scale design. A design verified at the logic synthesis level m...
Many computer vision problems involving feature correspondence among images can be formulated as an assignment problem with a quadratic cost function. Such problems are computatio...
Recent advances in scene understanding and related tasks
have highlighted the importance of using regions to reason
about high-level scene structure. Typically, the regions are
