Learning a tree substitution grammar is very challenging due to derivational ambiguity. Our recent approach used a Bayesian non-parametric model to induce good derivations from tr...
In recent years, there has been an increase in research activities on Memetic Algorithm (MA). MA works with memes; a meme being defined as “the basic unit of cultural transmiss...
Algorithms for discrete energy minimization are of fundamental importance in computer vision. In this paper we focus on the recent technique proposed by Wainwright et al. [33] - t...
In this paper we present a probabilistic framework for tracking objects based on local dynamic segmentation. We view the segn to be a Markov labeling process and abstract it as a ...
We introduce Hegel and Fichte’s dialectic as a search meta-heuristic for constraint satisfaction and optimization. Dialectic is an appealing mental concept for local search as it...
