Many important combinatorial optimization problems can be expressed as constraint satisfaction problems with soft constraints. When problems are too difficult to be solved exactly,...
Pervasive networks with low-cost embedded 8-bit processors are set to change our day-to-day life. Public-key cryptography provides crucial functionality to assure security which is...
In stochastic thresholding, the threshold for quantization of a signal is randomized. An estimator based on quantized signal data can be optimized through stochastic thresholding. ...
The coalition formation process, in which a number of independent, autonomous agents come together to act as a collective, is an important form of interaction in multi-agent system...
Abstract. We present a new algorithm for segmenting a scene consisting of multiple moving dynamic textures. We model the spatial statistics of a dynamic texture with a set of secon...
