With an explosive growth of blogs, information seeking in blogosphere becomes more and more challenging. One example task is to find the most relevant topical blogs against a give...
Estimation of distribution algorithms replace the typical crossover and mutation operators by constructing a probabilistic model and generating offspring according to this model....
We show how models for prediction with expert advice can be defined concisely and clearly using hidden Markov models (HMMs); standard HMM algorithms can then be used to efficientl...
This paper describes efficient data structures, namely the Indexed P-tree, Block P-tree, and Indexed-Block P-tree (or IP-tree, BP-tree, and IBP-tree, respectively, for short), for...
We propose a digit-recurrence algorithm for division in real and complex number domains using a variable radix. The objective of the approach is to simplify the prescaling of the ...
