The choice of a color space is of great importance for many computer vision algorithms (e.g. edge detection and object recognition). It induces the equivalence classes to the actu...
Automatic generation of taxonomies can be useful for a wide area of applications. In our application scenario a topical hierarchy should be constructed reasonably fast from a large...
Loop nest optimization is a combinatorial problem. Due to the growing complexity of modern architectures, it involves two increasingly difficult tasks: (1) analyzing the profita...
Performance tuning involves a diagnostic process to locate and explain sources of program inefficiency. A performance diagnosis system can leverage knowledge of performance cause...
Speech can be represented as a time/frequency distribution of energy using a multi-band filter bank. A Markov random field model, which takes into account the possible time asynch...
