A Learning Algorithm for Continually Running Fully Recurrent Neural Networks

by Ronald J. Williams, David Zipser , 1989
"... The exact form of a gradient-following learning algorithm for completely recurrent networks running in continually sampled time is derived and used as the basis for practical algorithms for temporal supervised learning tasks. These algorithms have: (1) the advantage that they do not require a precis ..."

Constrained model predictive control: Stability and optimality

by D. Q. Mayne, J. B. Rawlings, C. V. Rao, P. O. M. Scokaert - AUTOMATICA , 2000
"... Model predictive control is a form of control in which the current control action is obtained by solving, at each sampling instant, a finite horizon open-loop optimal control problem, using the current state of the plant as the initial state; the optimization yields an optimal control sequence and t ..."

Optimization Flow Control, I: Basic Algorithm and Convergence

by Steven H. Low, David E. Lapsley - IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING , 1999
"... We propose an optimization approach to flow control where the objective is to maximize the aggregate source utility over their transmission rates. We view network links and sources as processors of a distributed computation system to solve the dual problem using gradient projection algorithm. In thi ..."

Evolving Neural Networks through Augmenting Topologies

by Kenneth O. Stanley, Risto Miikkulainen - Evolutionary Computation
"... An important question in neuroevolution is how to gain an advantage from evolving neural network topologies along with weights. We present a method, NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies (NEAT), which outperforms the best fixed-topology method on a challenging benchmark reinforcement learning task ..."

Shape Matching and Object Recognition Using Shape Contexts

by Serge Belongie, Jitendra Malik, Jan Puzicha - IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 2001
"... We present a novel approach to measuring similarity between shapes and exploit it for object recognition. In our framework, the measurement of similarity is preceded by (1) solv- ing for correspondences between points on the two shapes, (2) using the correspondences to estimate an aligning transform ..."

Convex Piecewise-Linear Fitting

by unknown authors , 2006
"... We consider the problem of fitting a convex piecewise-linear function, with some specified form, to given multi-dimensional data. Except for a few special cases, this problem is hard to solve exactly, so we focus on heuristic methods that find locally optimal fits. The method we describe, which is a ..."

Protocols for self-organization of a wireless sensor network

by Katayoun Sohrabi, Jay Gao, Vishal Ailawadhi, Gregory J Pottie - IEEE Personal Communications , 2000
"... We present a suite of algorithms for self-organization of wireless sensor networks, in which there is a scalably large number of mainly static nodes with highly constrained energy resources. The protocols further support slow mobility by a subset of the nodes, energy-efficient routing, and formation ..."

Routing in a delay tolerant network

by Sushant Jain, Kevin Fall, Rabin Patra - Proceedings of ACM Sigcomm , 2004
"... We formulate the delay-tolerant networking routing problem, where messages are to be moved end-to-end across a connectivity graph that is time-varying but whose dynamics may be known in advance. The problem has the added constraints of finite buffers at each node and the general property that no con ..."

Bundle Adjustment -- A Modern Synthesis

by Bill Triggs, Philip McLauchlan, Richard Hartley, Andrew Fitzgibbon - VISION ALGORITHMS: THEORY AND PRACTICE, LNCS , 2000
"... This paper is a survey of the theory and methods of photogrammetric bundle adjustment, aimed at potential implementors in the computer vision community. Bundle adjustment is the problem of refining a visual reconstruction to produce jointly optimal structure and viewing parameter estimates. Topics c ..."
