The Grid is the computing and data management infrastructure, which is transforming science, business, health and society. This paper deals with a challenging task addressing know...
We present a background model that differentiates between background motion and foreground objects. Unlike most models that represent the variability of pixel intensity at a partic...
We consider feature extraction (dimensionality reduction) for compositional data, where the data vectors are constrained to be positive and constant-sum. In real-world problems, t...
In this paper we propose an automatic mechanism for annotating XML documents. This mechanism relies on a simple data model whose main features are: (1) a modeling of XML documents ...
A new architecture for identifying and interpreting temporal expressions is introduced, in which the large set of complex hand-crafted rules standard in systems for this task is r...
