Concurrent programming is notoriously di#cult. Current abstractions are intricate and make it hard to design computer systems that are reliable and scalable. We argue that these problems can be addressed by moving to a declarative style of concurrency control in which programmers directly indicate
A New Point Matching Algorithm for Non-Rigid Registration
, 2002
"... Feature-based methods for non-rigid registration frequently encounter the correspondence problem. Regardless of whether points, lines, curves or surface parameterizations are used, feature-based non-rigid matching requires us to automatically solve for correspondences between two sets of features. I ..."

. In addition, there could be many features in either set that have no counterparts in the other. This outlier rejection problem further complicates an already di#cult correspondence problem. We formulate feature-based non-rigid registration as a non-rigid point matching problem. After a careful review
Sparse Principal Component Analysis
- Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics
, 2004
"... Principal component analysis (PCA) is widely used in data processing and dimensionality reduction. However, PCA su#ers from the fact that each principal component is a linear combination of all the original variables, thus it is often di#cult to interpret the results. We introduce a new method ca ..."

Reasoning about beliefs and actions under computational resource constraints
- in Proceedings of the 1989 Workshop on Uncertainty and AI
, 1987
"... Although many investigators arm a desire to build reasoning systems that behave consistently with the axiomatic basis dened by probability theory and utility theory, limited resources for engineering and computation can make a complete normative anal-ysis impossible. We attempt to move discussion be ..."

on the application of knowledge about the expected timewise-renement abilities of reasoning strategies to balance the bene ts of additional computation with the costs of acting with a partial result. We dis-cuss the benets of applying decision theory to control the solution of dicult problems given limitations
Computing Occluding and Transparent Motions
- International Journal of Computer Vision
, 1994
"... Computing the motions of several moving objects in image sequences involves simultaneous motion analysis and segmentation. This task can become complicated when image motion changes signi#cantly between frames, as with camera vibrations. Such vibrations make tracking in longer sequences harder, as t ..."

Microarrays, Empirical Bayes Methods, and False Discovery Rates
- Genet. Epidemiol
, 2001
"... In a classic two-sample problem one might use Wilcoxon's statistic to test for a dierence between Treatment and Control subjects. The analogous microarray experiment yields thousands of Wilcoxon statistics, one for each gene on the array, and confronts the statistician with a dicult simultan ..."

A signal correlation guided ATPG solver and its applications for solving dicult industrial cases
- Proc. DAC `03
"... The developments of efficient SAT solvers have attracted tremendous research interest in recent years. The merits of these solvers are often compared in terms of their performance based upon a wide spread of benchmarks. In this paper, we extend an earlier-proposed solver de-sign concept called (SCGL ..."

Along with this SCGL fam-ily of heuristics, we classify benchmark examples according to their performance using the SCGL heuristics. With this study, we identify the class of problems that are uniquely suitable
The \Moving Targets " Algorithm for Dicult Temporal Credit Assignment Problems Presentation for the workshop: Neural Networks for Statistical and Economic Data
, 1990
"... The \moving targets " algorithm for training recurrent networks is reviewed and ap-plied to a task which demonstrates the ability of this algorithm to use distant contextual information. Some practical diculties are discussed, especially with regard to the min-imization process. Results on perf ..."

Metropolis Light Transport
- Computer Graphics (SIGGRAPH '97 Proceedings
, 1997
"... We present a new Monte Carlo method for solving the light transport problem, inspired by the Metropolis sampling method in computational physics. To render an image, we generate a sequence of light transport paths by randomly mutating a single current path (e.g. adding a new vertex to the path). Eac ..."

It performs especially well on problems that are usually considered di#cult, e.g. those involving bright indirect light, small geometric holes, or glossy
