— This paper describes a probabilistic framework for navigation using only appearance data. By learning a generative model of appearance, we can compute not only the similarity o...
Most Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms are able to find a single (or few) optimal, or near-optimal, solutions to difficult (NP-hard) problems. An issue though is that a s...
A new musical onset detection technique based on adaptive linear prediction theory is proposed in this work. We decompose a music signal into multiple sub-bands, and then apply a ...
1 Service discovery protocols are used in distributed systems to locate services for clients. The services that are located as well as the clients requesting service are commonly a...
In this paper, we present a novel segmentationinsensitive approach for mining common patterns from 2 images. We develop an algorithm using the Earth Movers Distance (EMD) framewor...
