We investigate the problem of ranking answers to a database query when many tuples are returned. We adapt and apply principles of probabilistic models from Information Retrieval f...
We consider the Multi-armed bandit problem under the PAC (“probably approximately correct”) model. It was shown by Even-Dar et al. [5] that given n arms, it suffices to play th...
In this paper, we propose an intelligent recognition system for objectionable image in JPEG compression domain. First, the system applies robust skin color model and skin texture a...

The distribution of keys by a hash function as used in hash search with chaining is studied by considering the distribution of keys a random function from keys to buckets would gi...
An system-level power management technique for massively distributed wireless microsensor networks is proposed. A power aware sensor node model is introduced which enables the embe...
