We present a formal analysis of the database layout problem, i.e., the problem of determining how database objects such as tables and indexes are assigned to disk drives. Optimizin...
We present the first PAC bounds for learning parameters of Conditional Random Fields [12] with general structures over discrete and real-valued variables. Our bounds apply to com...
In this paper we address the problem of pool based active learning, and provide an algorithm, called UPAL, that works by minimizing the unbiased estimator of the risk of a hypothe...
We initiate the study of unique group signature such that signatures of the same message by the same user will always have a large common component (i.e., unique identifier). It ...
This is the sample implementation of a Markov random field based image segmentation algorithm described in the following papers:
