Anisotropic Diffusion Based Multiplicative Speckle Noise Removal

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Multiplicative speckle noise removal is a challenging task in image processing. Motivated by the performance of anisotropic diffusion in additive noise removal and the structure of the standard deviation of a compressed speckle noisy image, we address ...

A dynamic look-ahead Monte Carlo algorithm for pricing Bermudan options [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Under the assumption of no-arbitrage, the pricing of American and Bermudan options can be casted into optimal stopping problems. We propose a new adaptive simulation based algorithm for the numerical solution of optimal stopping problems in discrete time.

Bayesian sequential testing of the drift of a Brownian motion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We study a classical Bayesian statistics problem of sequentially testing the sign of the drift of an arithmetic Brownian motion with the $0$-$1$ loss function and a constant cost of observation per unit of time for general prior distributions.

Density-Based Multiscale Analysis for Clustering in Strong Noise Settings With Varying Densities

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Finding meaningful clustering patterns in data can be very challenging when the clusters are of arbitrary shapes, different sizes, or densities, and especially when the data set contains high percentage (e.g., 80%) of noise.

Optimal stopping under adverse nonlinear expectation and related games [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We study the existence of optimal actions in a zero-sum game $\inf_{\tau}\sup_PE^P[X_{\tau}]$ between a stopper and a controller choosing a probability measure.

Second order reflected backward stochastic differential equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this article, we build upon the work of Soner, Touzi and Zhang [Probab. Theory Related Fields 153 (2012) 149-190] to define a notion of a second order backward stochastic differential equation reflected on a lower c\`adl\`ag obstacle.

Almost sure optimal hedging strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this work, we study the optimal discretization error of stochastic integrals, in the context of the hedging error in a multidimensional It\^{o} model when the discrete rebalancing dates are stopping times.

Joint Channel Probing and Proportional Fair Scheduling in Wireless Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The design of a scheduling scheme is crucial for the efficiency and user-fairness of wireless networks. Assuming that the quality of all user channels is available to a central controller, a simple scheme which maximizes the utility function defined as ...

Optimal multiple stopping time problem

open access: yes, 2011
We study the optimal multiple stopping time problem defined for each stopping time $S$ by $v(S)=\operatorname {ess}\sup_{\tau_1,...,\tau_d\geq S}E[\psi(\tau_1,...,\tau_d)|\mathcal{F}_S]$. The key point is the construction of a new reward $\phi$ such that
