Stochastic Optimization for Rigid Point Set Registration
In this paper we propose a new method for pairwise rigid point set registration. We pay special attention to noise robustness, outlier resistance and global optimal alignment. The ...

Lower Bounds for Howard's Algorithm for Finding Minimum Mean-Cost Cycles
Howard's policy iteration algorithm is one of the most widely used algorithms for finding optimal policies for controlling Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). When applied to we...

General Search Algorithms for Energy Minimization Problems
We describe a scheme for solving Energy Minimization problems, which is based on the A∗ algorithm accomplished with appropriately chosen LP-relaxations as heuristic functions. Th...

Fitting of 3D Circles and Ellipses Using a Parameter Decomposition Approach
Many optimization processes encounter a problem in efficiently reaching a global minimum or a near global minimum. Traditional methods such as Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm and t...
