Following recent work of Clarkson, we translate the coreset framework to the problems of finding the point closest to the origin inside a polytope, finding the shortest distance...
The exploration problem is a central issue in mobile robotics. A complete terrain coverage is not practical if the environment is large with only a few small hotspots. This paper ...
This paper presents reliable techniques for detecting, tracking, and storing keyframes of people in surveillance video. The first component of our system is a novel face detector ...
This paper presents three techniques for improving the effectiveness of the recently proposed Adaptive Stream Detection (ASD) prefetching mechanism. The ASD prefetcher is a standa...
We study the performance issue of the “iterative” record linkage (RL) problem, where match and merge operations may occur together in iterations until convergence emerges. We ...
