The physical properties of color are usually described by their spectra, eigenvector expansions or low-dimensional descriptors such as RGB or CIE-Lab. In the first part of the pap...
Bayesian belief propagation in graphical models has been recently shown to have very close ties to inference methods based in statistical physics. After Yedidia et al. demonstrate...
The paper presents basic concepts of the discrete system theory from the viewpoint of Banach algebras and shows that some Banach algebras of sequences are not only suitable mathem...
Common wisdom has it that small distinctions in the probabilities quantifying a belief network do not matter much for the results of probabilistic queries. Yet, one can develop re...
We study the average-case performance of algorithms for the binary knapsack problem. Our focus lies on the analysis of so-called core algorithms, the predominant algorithmic conce...
