Several new applications and a number of new mathematical techniques have increased the research on errorcorrecting codes in the Lee metric in the last decade. In this work we cons...
We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P of size n, our goal is to find a set C of size k such t...
The Mahalanobis metric was proposed by extending the Mahalanobis distance to provide a probabilistic distance for a non-normal distribution. The Mahalanobis metric equation is a n...
In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...
Minimum phone error (MPE) acoustic parameter estimation involves calculation of edit distances (errors) between correct and incorrect hypotheses. In the context of large vocabulary...
