Abstract. This paper presents an approach to object discovery in a given unlabeled image set, based on mining repetitive spatial configurations of image contours. Contours that si...
We propose a new probabilistic approach to information retrieval based upon the ideas and methods of statistical machine translation. The central ingredient in this approach is a ...
This paper contributes to a facet from the area of Web Information Retrieval that has recently received much attention: The satisfaction of a user's personal information need ...
We present Cluster Onset Detection (COD), a novel algorithm to aid in detection of epidemic outbreaks. COD employs unsupervised learning techniques in an online setting to partiti...
