This paper views clusterings as elements of a lattice. Distances between clusterings are analyzed in their relationship to the lattice. From this vantage point, we first give an a...
Without textual descriptions or label information of images, searching semantic concepts in image databases is still a very challenging task. While automatic annotation techniques...
Long running High Performance Computing (HPC) applications at scale must be able to tolerate inevitable faults if they are to harness current and future HPC systems. Message Passi...
Support Vector Machine (SVM) has been widely studied and shown success in many application fields. However, the performance of SVM drops significantly when it is applied to the pr...
A wide variety of machine learning problems can be described as minimizing a regularized risk functional, with different algorithms using different notions of risk and differen...
