The problem of influence maximization deals with choosing the optimal set of nodes in a social network so as to maximize the resulting spread of a technology (opinion, productowne...
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a widely-used method for low-rank approximation (LRA) of a nonnegative matrix (matrix with only nonnegative entries), where nonnegativity...
Nearest Neighbor (NN) retrieval is a crucial tool of many computer vision tasks. Since the brute-force naive search is too time consuming for most applications, several tailored d...
In this paper, we first present an outer bound for a general interference channel with a cognitive relay, i.e., a relay that has non-causal knowledge of both independent messages t...
Data integration systems offer users a uniform interface to a set of data sources. Previous work has typically assumed that the data sources are independent of each other; however...
