Towards high-quality, untangled meshes via a force-directed graph embedding approach
High quality meshes are crucial for the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) via the finite element method (or other PDE solvers). The accuracy of the PDE solution,...

Globally Convergent Autocalibration
Existing autocalibration techniques use numerical optimization algorithms that are prone to the problem of local minima. To address this problem, we have developed a method where ...

Component-wise parameter smoothing for learning mixture models
In this paper, we propose a novel component-wise smoothing algorithm that constructs a hierarchy (or family) of smoothened log-likelihood surfaces. Our approach first smoothens th...

Cluster-based Simulated Annealing for Mapping Cores onto 2D Mesh Networks on Chip
Abstract—In Network-on-Chip (NoC) application design, coreto-node mapping is an important but intractable optimization problem. In the paper, we use simulated annealing to tackle...
