Inconsistent parameter estimation in Markov random fields: Benefits in the computation-limited setting
Consider the problem of joint parameter estimation and prediction in a Markov random field: i.e., the model parameters are estimated on the basis of an initial set of data, and th...

Iterative construction of the optimal Bermudan stopping time
Abstract. We present an iterative procedure for computing the optimal Bermudan stopping time, hence the Bermudan Snell envelope. The method produces an increasing sequence of appro...

Contour-based surface reconstruction using MPU implicit models
This paper presents a technique for creating a smooth, closed surface from a set of 2D contours, which have been extracted from a 3D scan. The technique interprets the pixels that...

Application of the Fisher-Rao Metric to Structure Detection
Abstract - Certain structure detection problems can be solved by sampling a parameter space for the different structures at a finite number of points and checking each point to see...
