In this paper, we study online algorithms when the input is not chosen adversarially, but consists of draws from some given probability distribution. While this model has been stu...
We introduce a new problem that was motivated by a (more complicated) problem arising in a robotized assembly environment. The bin coloring problem is to pack unit size colored it...
Abstract. Shared counters are the key to solving a variety of coordination problems on multiprocessor machines, such as barrier synchronization and index distribution. It is desire...
A variational Bayesian framework is employed in the paper for image segmentation using color clustering. A Gaussian mixture model is used to represent color distributions. Variati...
We consider the following problem: given an unsorted array of n elements, and a sequence of intervals in the array, compute the median in each of the subarrays defined by the inter...
