We study four scheduling problems involving the maximum lateness criterion and an element of batching. For all the problems that we examine, algorithms appear in the literature th...
We introduce a new data structure in the form of a light hierarchy for efficiently ray-tracing scenes with many light sources. An octree is constructed with the point light sourc...
Parallel disk I/O subsystems are becoming more important in today’s large-scale parallel machines. Parallel disk systems provide a significant boost in I/O performance reducing ...
Abstract. The rational approach to pharmaceutical drug design begins with an investigation of the relationship between chemical structure and biological activity. Information gaine...
We apply independent component analysis (ICA) for extracting an optimal basis to the problem of finding efficient features for a speaker. The basis functions learned by the algori...
