Today, a number of algorithms exist for constructing tag hierarchies from social tagging data. While these algorithms were designed with ontological goals in mind, we know very li...
We present an analysis which takes as its input a sequential program, augmented with annotations indicating potential parallelization opportunities, and a sequential proof, writte...
This paper presents a framework for building and continuously maintaining spatio-temporal histograms (ST-Histograms, for short). ST-Histograms are used for selectivity estimation o...

In this paper, we describe an approach to recognizing location from mobile devices using image-based web search. We demonstrate the usefulness of common image search metrics appli...
With the growing interest in object categorization various methods have emerged that perform well in this challenging task, yet are inherently limited to only a moderate number of...
