—Inspired by the contours in topography, this paper proposes a contour method for the population-based stochastic algorithms to solve the problems with continuous variables. Rely...
A new method, namely the Parallel Two-Level Hybrid (PTH) method, is developed to solve tridiagonal systems on parallel computers. PTH is designed based on Parallel Diagonal Domina...
Image matting deals with finding the probability that each pixel in an image belongs to a user specified `object' or to the remaining `background'. Most existing methods...
We design a linear time approximation scheme for the GaleBerlekamp Switching Game and generalize it to a wider class of dense fragile minimization problems including the Nearest C...
Optimal control problems for constrained linear systems with a linear cost can be posed as multiparametric linear programs with a parameter in the cost, or equivalently the right-...
