The `kernel approach' has attracted great attention with the development of support vector machine (SVM) and has been studied in a general way. It offers an alternative soluti...
EM algorithm is a very popular iteration-based method to estimate the parameters of Gaussian Mixture Model from a large observation set. However, in most cases, EM algorithm is no...
We present a probabilistic model for clustering of objects represented via pairwise dissimilarities. We propose that even if an underlying vectorial representation exists, it is b...

Similarity search in texts, notably in biological sequences, has received substantial attention in the last few years. Numerous filtration and indexing techniques have been create...
Given a metric space (X, dX), c ≥ 1, r > 0, and p, q ∈ [0, 1], a distribution over mappings H : X → N is called a (r, cr, p, q)-sensitive hash family if any two points in...
