In distributed and mobile environments, the connections among the hosts on which a software system is running are often unstable. As a result of connectivity losses, the overall av...
We propose a novel technique based on spherical splines for brain surface representation and analysis. This research is strongly inspired by the fact that, for brain surfaces, it i...
We present a probabilistic model for a document corpus that combines many of the desirable features of previous models. The model is called “GaP” for Gamma-Poisson, the distri...
An important class of queries is the LIKE predicate in SQL. In the absence of an index, LIKE queries are subject to performance degradation. The notion of indexing on substrings (...
This paper presents a new approach for continuous tracking of moving objects observed by multiple, heterogeneous cameras. Our approach simultaneously processes video streams from ...
