— A heuristic is proposed to address free parameter selection for Support Vector Machines, with the goals of improving generalization performance and providing greater insensitiv...
Docking craft in space and guiding mining machines are areas that often use remote video cameras equipped with one or more controllable light sources. In these applications, the p...
Resource selection is fundamental to the performance of master/slave applications. In this paper, we address the problem of promoting performance for distributed master/slave appl...
