The 2-class transduction problem, as formulated by Vapnik [1], involves finding a separating hyperplane for a labelled data set that is also maximally distant from a given set of...
This paper develops an efficient new method for 3D partial shape retrieval. First, a Monte Carlo sampling strategy is employed to extract local shape signatures from each 3D model...
An increasing number of documents in companies and other organizations are now only available electronically, and exist in several versions updated at different times. In order to...
In our prior work, we presented a highly effective local search based heuristic algorithm called the Largest Expanding Sweep Search (LESS) to solve the minimum energy broadcast (M...
