Query optimization is a computationally intensive process, especially for complex queries. We present here a tool, called PLASTIC, that can be used by query optimizers to amortize...

Kernel-based non-parametric models have been applied widely over recent years. However, the associated computational complexity imposes limitations on the applicability of those me...

Given a pair of nonidentical complex objects, de ning and determining how similar they are to each other is a nontrivial problem. In data mining applications, one frequently nee...
We study finding similar or diverse solutions of a given computational problem, in answer set programming, and introduce offline methods and online methods to compute them using an...

A fundamental problem in depth from defocus is the measurement of relative defocus between images. We propose a class of broadband operators that, when used together, provide inva...
