Virtual types have been proposed as a notation for generic programming in object-oriented languages—an alternative to the more familiar mechanism of parametric classes. The trade...
When monitoring spatial phenomena, which can often be modeled as Gaussian processes (GPs), choosing sensor locations is a fundamental task. There are several common strategies to ...
