This paper presents the result for Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation (SPSA) on the BBOB 2010 noiseless testbed. SPSA is a stochastic gradient approximation strate...
We propose a new measure of conditional dependence of random variables, based on normalized cross-covariance operators on reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Unlike previous kernel...

This paper presents methods for a qualitative, unbiased comparison of lexical association measures and the results we have obtained for adjective-noun pairs and preposition-noun-v...
The development and adoption of standards for the evaluation of digital camera resolution has helped foster the widespread use of slanted-edge-based analysis. In addition, the for...
Under certain conditions on the integrand, quasi-Monte Carlo methods for estimating integrals (expectations) converge faster asymptotically than Monte Carlo methods. Motivated by ...
