Support vector machines utilizing the 1-norm, typically set up as linear programs (Mangasarian, 2000; Bradley and Mangasarian, 1998), are formulated here as a completely unconstra...
The estimation of high-dimensional probability density functions (PDFs) is not an easy task for many image processing applications. The linear models assumed by widely used transf...
The hidden Markov field (HMF) model has been used in many model-based solutions to image analysis problems, including that of image segmentation, and generally gives satisfying re...
Social networking, distributed problem solving and human computation have gained high visibility. Wikipedia is a well established service that incorporates aspects of these three ...
This paper addresses the recovery and the rollback problem in distributed collaborative transactions. We propose a solution to the problem in a generalized ARIES [9] framework. We...
