Most automatic expression analysis systems attempt to recognize a small set of prototypic expressions (e.g. happiness and anger). Such prototypic expressions, however, occur infre...
Selectivity estimation of queries is an important and wellstudied problem in relational database systems. In this paper, we examine selectivity estimation in the context of Geogra...
We consider a parallel Algol-like language, combining procedures with shared-variable parallelism. Procedures permit encapsulation of common parallel programming idioms. Local var...
This paper presents a framework for implicit deformable models and a pair of new algorithms for solving the nonlinear partial di erential equations that result from this framework...
In recent years, many emerging database applications deal with large sets of continuously moving data objects. Since no computer system can commit continuously occurring infinitesi...
