It is increasingly recognised that user preferences should be addressed in many advanced database applications, such as adaptive searching in databases. However, the fundamental is...
In the k-medoid problem, given a dataset P, we are asked to choose k points in P as the medoids. The optimal medoid set minimizes the average Euclidean distance between the points ...
Dynamic real-time systems require adaptive resource management to accommodate varying processing needs. We address the problem of resource management with multiple shared resource...
Rewriting systems on words are very useful in the study of monoids. In good cases, they give finite presentations of the monoids, allowing their manipulation by a computer. Even b...
Hidden Markov models have become the preferred technique for visual recognition of human gestures. However, the recognition rate depends on the set of visual features used, and al...
