Recent years have seen growth in the number of algorithms designed to solve challenging simulation-based nonlinear optimization problems. One such algorithm is the Trust-Region Par...
Histogram techniques have been used in many commercial database management systems to estimate a query result size. Recently, it has been shown that they are very effective to su...
We consider the problem of approximating normal and feature sizes of a surface from point cloud data that may be noisy. These problems are central to many applications dealing wit...
— Network dimensioning for wavelength-routed WDM networks has been extensively studied to maximize connection acceptance rate while minimizing the total cost. However, Internet s...
Many tasks in computer vision involve assigning a label (such as disparity) to every pixel. These tasks can be formulated as energy minimization problems. In this paper, we conside...
