This article focusses on the problems of feature extraction and the recognition of handwritten digits. A trainable feature extractor based on the LeNet5 convolutional neural netwo...
This paper studies, for the first time, the management of type information for an important class of semi-structured data: nested DAGs (Directed Acyclic Graphs) that describe exec...
Social annotation via so-called collaborative tagging describes the process by which many users add metadata in the form of unstructured keywords to shared content. In this paper,...
We consider analysis of complex stochastic models based upon partial information. MCMC and reversible jump MCMC are often the methods of choice for such problems, but in some situ...
