Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have successfully shown efficiencies in many areas such as text categorization. Although recommendation systems share many similarities with text ca...
We address the problem of efficiently discovering the influential nodes in a social network under the susceptible/infected/susceptible (SIS) model, a diffusion model where nodes ar...
In this paper, we improve and tailor a recent statistical region merging approach to biased (partially supervised) grouping. The approach appears to be attractive both for its the...
This paper compares two techniques for measuring the length of a digital curve. Both techniques (digital straight segment approximation, minimum length polygon) are known to be co...
