Data fusion has been investigated by many researchers in the information retrieval community and has become an effective technique for improving retrieval effectiveness. In this p...
We present a simple history-based model for sentence generation from LFG f-structures, which improves on the accuracy of previous models by breaking down PCFG independence assumpt...
Bit rate adaptation is one of the most important types of video transcoding. With H.264 becoming the predominant video codec of choice in video coding and streaming, prudent ratea...
Theoretical and experimental analyses of bagging indicate that it is primarily a variance reduction technique. This suggests that bagging should be applied to learning algorithms ...
We introduce a new technique to solve exactly a discrete optimization problem, based on the paradigm of “negative” thinking. The motivation is that when searching the space of...
