The problem of multimodal data mining in a multimedia database can be addressed as a structured prediction problem where we learn the mapping from an input to the structured and i...

Both the logic and the stochastic analysis of discrete-state systems are hindered by the combinatorial growth of the state space underlying a high-level model. In this work, we con...
We consider the problem of obtaining the approximate maximum a posteriori estimate of a discrete random field characterized by pairwise potentials that form a truncated convex mod...
A major cost in executing queries in a distributed database system is the data transfer cost incurred in transferring relations (fragments) accessed by a query from different site...
Keyword search is an effective approach for most users to search for information because they do not need to learn complex query languages or the underlying structures of the data....
