In the present paper, by applying the theory of stochastic processes and interacting particle systems and models, including stopping time theory and stochastic voter model, we mode...
We introduce the notion of a Canonical Tester for a class of properties on distributions, that is, a tester strong and general enough that “a distribution property in the class ...
The selection of valuable features is crucial in pattern recognition. In this paper we deal with the issue that part of features originate from directional instead of common linea...
Abstract--We propose a novel variation to biogeographybased optimization (BBO), which is an evolutionary algorithm (EA) developed for global optimization. The new algorithm employs...
In this paper, a competition-based connectionist model for diagnostic problem-solving is adapted to information retrieval. In this model, we treat documents as \disorders" an...
