— Many inference problems that arise in sensor networks require the computation of a global conclusion that is consistent with local information known to each node. A large class...
In this paper a concern about the accuracy (as a function of parallelism) of a certain class of distributed learning algorithms is raised, and one proposed improvement is illustrat...

Abstract. There is an urgent need for sound approaches to integrative and collaborative analysis of large, autonomous (and hence, inevitably semantically heterogeneous) data source...

Object recognition accuracy can be improved when information from multiple views is integrated, but information in each view can often be highly redundant. We consider the problem...

We suggest a general paradigm of using large-scale distributed computation to solve difficult problems, but where humans can act as agents and provide candidate solutions. We are e...
