Bucket elimination is an algorithmic framework that generalizes dynamic programming to accommodate many problem-solving and reasoning tasks. Algorithms such as directional-resolut...
Several authors have noticed that the common representation of images as vectors is sub-optimal. The process of vectorization eliminates spatial relations between some of the near...
Reliable estimation of the trifocal tensor is crucial for 3D reconstruction from uncalibrated cameras. The estimation process is based on minimizing the geometric distances betwee...
Millions of containers are stowed every week with goods worth billions of dollars, but container vessel stowage is an all but neglected combinatorial optimization problem. In this ...
— In this paper we develop a new dual decomposition method for optimizing a sum of convex objective functions corresponding to multiple agents but with coupled constraints. In ou...
