The problem of computing periods in words, or finite sequences of symbols from a finite alphabet, has important applications in several areas including data compression, string se...
Complex multimedia queries, aiming to retrieve from large databases those objects that best match the query specification, are usually processed by splitting them into a set of m ...

Abstract. Time Petri nets have proved their interest in modeling realtime concurrent systems. Their usual semantics is defined in term of firing sequences, which can be coded in a ...
Markov random field (MRF) models, including conditional random field models, are popular in computer vision. However, in order to be computationally tractable, they are limited to ...
