In this paper, a competition-based connectionist model for diagnostic problem-solving is adapted to information retrieval. In this model, we treat documents as \disorders" an...
We present a multi-scale algorithm for mapping a texture defined by an input image onto an arbitrary surface. It avoids the generation and storage of a new, specific texture. The ...
In many learning problems prior knowledge about pattern variations can be formalized and beneficially incorporated into the analysis system. The corresponding notion of invarianc...
We study the problem of designing a survivable WDM network based on covering the communication requests with subnetworks that are protected independently from each other. We consi...
The dependency propagation problem is to determine, given a view defined on data sources and a set of dependencies on the sources, whether another dependency is guaranteed to hold...
