We discuss the tensions between intensionality and extensionality of spatial observations in distributed systems, showing that there are natural models where extensional observati...
Most iris recognition systems use the global and local texture information of the iris in order to recognize individuals. In this work, we investigate the use of macro-features th...
Structured data represented in the form of graphs arises in several fields of the science and the growing amount of available data makes distributed graph mining techniques partic...
This paper introduces a very compact yet discriminative video description, which allows example-based search in a large number of frames corresponding to thousands of hours of vide...
The design of effective neighborhood structures is fundamentally important for creating better local search and metaheuristic algorithms for combinatorial optimization. Significant...
