We explore the problem of rapid automatic semantic tagging of video frames of unstructured (unedited) videos. We apply the Sort-Merge algorithm for feature selection on a large (&...
Classical problems of sorting and searching assume an underlying linear ordering of the objects being compared. In this paper, we study a more general setting, in which some pairs...

Abstract. In experimental psychology, the method of paired comparisons was proposed as a means for ranking preferences amongst n elements of a human subject. The method requires pe...
Abstract. The worst-case complexity of an implementation of Quicksort depends on the random number generator that is used to select the pivot elements. In this paper we estimate th...
Abstract. Random sampling is an important tool in the design of parallel algorithms. Using random sampling it is possible to obtain simple parallel algorithms which are e cient in ...
