We consider the problem where a network of sensors has to detect the presence of targets at any of $n$ possible locations in a finite region. All such locations may not be occupied by a target. The data from sensors is fused to determine…
Implicit regularization refers to the tendency of local search algorithms to converge to low-dimensional solutions, even when such structures are not explicitly enforced. Despite its ubiquity, the mechanism underlying this behavior remains…
