Abstract-- Despite of advances in machine learning technologies, a schema matching result between two database schemas (e.g., those derived from COMA++) is likely to be imprecise. ...
Despite extensive study over the last four decades and numerous applications, no I/O-efficient algorithm is known for the union-find problem. In this paper we present an I/O-effic...
Given data drawn from a mixture of multivariate Gaussians, a basic problem is to accurately estimate the mixture parameters. We give an algorithm for this problem that has running ...
—This paper deals with the problem of shot-change detection on H.264/AVC compressed video. As H.264/AVC employs several new coding tools, the statistic information of macroblock ...
Level-expanding quasi-birth-and-death (QBD) processes have been shown to be an efficient modeling tool for studying multi-dimensional systems, especially twodimensional ones. Comp...
