Quantile smoothing splines provide nonparametric estimation of conditional quantile functions. Like other nonparametric smoothing techniques, the choice of smoothing parameters co...
Defending against large, distributed Denial-of-Service attacks is challenging, with large changes to the network core or to end-hosts often suggested. To make matters worse, spooï...
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has shown to be an efficient, robust and simple optimization algorithm. Most of the PSO studies are empirical, with only a few theoretical analys...
It is shown that preferences can be constructed from observed choice behavior in a way that is robust to indifferent selection (i.e., the agent is indifferent between two alternat...
Abstract This work proposes a system for the automatic construction of multi-spectral three-dimensional (3D) models of architecture. Besides the specific application, which concern...
