A database D may be inconsistent wrt a given set IC of integrity constraints. Consistent Query Answering is the problem of computing from D the answers to a query that are consist...
The coverage problem is of great interest for many sensor network applications, for example, detection of intruders in the sensor field. Topological changes in sensor networks ma...
This paper describes the use of a convolutional neural network to perform address block location on machine-printed mail pieces. Locating the address block is a dicult object rec...
We solve the problem of minimizing the number of critical points among all functions on a surface within a prescribed distance from a given input function. The result is achieved...
— Convexity/concavity properties of symbol error rates (SER) of the maximum likelihood detector operating in the AWGN channel (non-fading and fading) are studied. Generic conditi...
