The "bag-of-frames" approach (BOF) to audio pattern recognition models signals as the long-term statistical distribution of their local spectral features, a prototypical...
Background: The wealth of information on protein structure has led to a variety of statistical analyses of the role played by individual amino acid types in the protein fold. In p...
Abstract. In this paper we present an index structure, called MetricMap, that takes a set of objects and a distance metric and then maps those objects to a k-dimensional space in s...

Phrase structure trees have a hierarchical structure. In many subjects, most notably in taxonomy such tree structures have been studied using ultrametrics. Here syntactical hierar...
The success of popular algorithms such as k-means clustering or nearest neighbor searches depend on the assumption that the underlying distance functions reflect domain-specific n...
