Abstract. A key challenge in multi-robot teaming research is determining how to properly enable robots to make decisions on actions they should take to contribute to the overall sy...
We study the design and approximation of optimal crowdsourcing contests. Crowdsourcing contests can be modeled as all-pay auctions because entrants must exert effort up-front to e...

We consider diversity for media streaming in a receiver-driven rate-distortion optimization framework. Diversity is achieved by requesting media packets from multiple servers. A f...
The general problem of optimized video encoding has received a great deal of attention in recent years. This paper focuses on the optimization of video coding with frameskip. We p...
The rapid progress of computers and today's heterogeneous computing environment means computation-intensive signal processing algorithms must be optimized for performance in ...
