We show that the minimum distance of a linear code is not approximable to within any constant factor in random polynomial time (RP), unless nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) eq...
Abstract—This paper presents an adaptive algorithm for preprocessing document images prior to binarization in character recognition problems. Our method is similar in its approac...
The performance of an offline-trained classifier can be improved on-site by adapting the classifier towards newly acquired data. However, the adaptation rate is a tuning parame...
Building software systems with reusable components brings many advantages. The development becomes more efficient, the reliability of the products is enhanced, and the maintenance...
Adaptability has become one of the most important research areas in concurrent object-oriented systems in recent years. It tries to cope with system evolution by adding/replacing ...
