We show that sampling with a biased Metropolis scheme is essentially equivalent to using the heatbath algorithm. However, the biased Metropolis method can also be applied when an ...
Abstract. We present a randomized approximation algorithm for counting contingency tables, m × n non-negative integer matrices with given row sums R = (r1, . . . , rm) and column ...

— We adopt the network coding approach to achieve minimum-cost multicast in interference-limited wireless networks where link capacities are functions of the signal-to-noise-plus...
This work presents a novel parallel technique to implement stack morphological filters for image processing. The method relies on applying the image bitwise decomposition to manip...
Decomposition of cells in clumps is a difficult segmentation task requiring region splitting techniques. Techniques that do not employ prior shape constraints usually fail to achi...
