On Low-Complexity Maximum-Likelihood Decoding of Convolutional Codes
Abstract--This letter considers the average complexity of maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding of convolutional codes. ML decoding can be modeled as finding the most probable path take...

Global Likelihood Optimization Via the Cross-Entropy Method, with an Application to Mixture Models
Global likelihood maximization is an important aspect of many statistical analyses. Often the likelihood function is highly multi-extremal. This presents a significant challenge t...

Asymptotic Characterization of Log-Likelihood Maximization Based Algorithms and Applications
The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...

Searching for objects: Combining multiple cues to object locations using a maximum entropy model
— In this paper, we consider the problem of how background knowledge about usual object arrangements can be utilized by a mobile robot to more efficiently find an object in an ...
