—Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are powerful search techniques that are used to solve difficult problems in many disciplines. Unfortunately, they can be very demanding in terms of com...
We developed a new modular synthesis approach for design of low-power core-based data-intensive application-specific systems on silicon. The power optimization is conducted in th...
In this paper we present a novel algorithm for video scene segmentation. We model a scene as a semantically consistent chunk of audio-visual data. Central to the segmentation fram...
The Cross-Entropy (CE) method is a modern and effective optimization method well suited to parallel implementations. There is a vast array of problems today, some of which are hig...
