The l-bfgs limited-memory quasi-Newton method is the algorithm of choice for optimizing the parameters of large-scale log-linear models with L2 regularization, but it cannot be us...
For as long as biologists have been computing alignments of sequences, the question of what values to use for scoring substitutions and gaps has persisted. While some choices for s...
Abstract— Particle filters have been applied with great success to various state estimation problems in robotics. However, particle filters often require extensive parameter tw...
This paper presents a method to simulate growth phenomena, and its application to the modeling of complex organic shapes (e.g., plants organs) and folded surfaces. Our main contri...
It seems likely that humans build internal models of objects that they explore haptically, and that the complexity of an internal model is not necessarily associated with complex ...
