In the context of network traffic analysis, we address the problem of estimating the tail index of flow (or more generally of any group) size distribution from the observation of...
A few models have appeared in recent years that consider not only the way substitutions occur through evolutionary history at each site of a genome, but also the way the process c...
Dynamic programming is introduced to quantize a continuous random variable into a discrete random variable. Quantization is often useful before statistical analysis or reconstruct...

We have designed a maximum likelihood fitter using the actor model to distribute the computation over a heterogeneous network. The prototype implementation uses the SALSA program...

Object detection using Haar-like features is formulated as a maximum likelihood estimation. Object features are described by an arbitrary Bayesian Network (BN) of Haar-like featur...
