Mining for association rules in market basket data has proved a fruitful areaof research. Measures such as conditional probability (confidence) and correlation have been used to i...
In a previous paper, Liu argued for the importance of establishing a precise theoretical foundation for program debugging from first principles. In this paper, we present a first ...
We propose an approach to lossy source coding, utilizing ideas from Gibbs sampling, simulated annealing, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The idea is to sample a reconstructio...
We address the well-known problem of determining the capacity of constrained coding systems. While the onedimensional case is well understood to the extent that there are technique...
