A distributed data-stream architecture finds application in sensor networks for monitoring environment and activities. In such a network, large numbers of sensors deliver continu...
This paper offers a local distributed algorithm for expectation maximization in large peer-to-peer environments. The algorithm can be used for a variety of well-known data mining...
