Many probabilistic models are only defined up to a normalization constant. This makes maximum likelihood estimation of the model parameters very difficult. Typically, one then h...
A security extension for IEEE Std 1149.1 is proposed. It provides a locking mechanism which prevents unauthorised users to interfere via test bus with the system normal operation. ...
We extend results about heights of random trees (Devroye, 1986, 1987, 1998b). In this paper, a general split tree model is considered in which the normalized subtree sizes of node...
The overall problem addressed in this paper is to improve semantic interoperability in heterogeneous systems. Normally, the semantics of data is carried by ontology (concept model)...
The paper presents an overview of financial applications of copulas. Copulas permit to represent joint distribution functions by splitting the marginal behavior, embedded in the ma...
