This paper proposes a new randomized strategy for adaptive MCMC using Bayesian optimization. This approach applies to nondifferentiable objective functions and trades off explor...
We address the problem of regional color transfer between two natural images by probabilistic segmentation. We use a new Expectation-Maximization (EM) scheme to impose both spatia...
Until recently, most data integration techniques involved central components, e.g., global schemas, to enable transparent access to heterogeneous databases. Today, however, with t...
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for proving the validity or invalidity of a pre/postcondition pair for a program. The algorithm is motivated by the success of the algori...
We investigate logics and equivalence relations that capture the qualitative behavior of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). We present Qualitative Randomized Ctl (Qrctl): formulas o...
