This paper describes a text chunking system based on a generalization of the Winnow algorithm. We propose a general statistical model for text chunking which we then convert into ...
The recent years have witnessed a surge of interests in Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) in data mining and machine learning fields. Despite its elegant theory and empirical...
The decreasing cost of technology and Internet access has resulted in increasingly large-scale scientific research projects that rely on technology-mediated public participation....
Hash tables are one of the most fundamental data structures in computer science, in both theory and practice. They are especially useful in external memory, where their query perf...
