This paper presents a novel opinion mining research problem, which is called Contrastive Opinion Modeling (COM). Given any query topic and a set of text collections from multiple ...
Many bioinformatics problems can implicitly depend on estimating large-scale covariance matrix. The traditional approaches tend to give rise to high variance and low accuracy esti...
Let D be a weighted directed graph cellularly embedded in a surface of genus g, orientable or not, possibly with boundary. We describe algorithms to compute a shortest non-contrac...
A new probabilistic image segmentation model based on hypothesis testing and Gibbs Random Fields is introduced. First, a probabilistic difference measure derived from a set of hyp...
The bipolar view in preference modeling distinguishes between negative and positive preferences. Negative preferences correspond to what is rejected, considered unacceptable, whil...
