We construct fast algorithms for evaluating transforms associated with families of functions which satisfy recurrence relations. These include algorithms both for computing the co...
We study the problem of generating e cient, equivalent rewritings using views to compute the answer to a query. We take the closed-world assumption, in which views are materialize...
Physics-based modeling integrates dynamics and geometry. The standard methods to solve the Lagrangian equations use a direct approach in the spatial domain. Though extremely power...
In this paper, we present a novel active contour model, in which the traditional gradient descent optimization is replaced by graph cut optimization. The basic idea is to first de...

Maximizing the aggregate network utility and minimizing the network energy consumption are important but conflict goals in wireless sensor networks. Challenges arise due to the app...
