The growing availability of on-line textual sources and the potential number of applications of knowledge acquisition from textual data has lead to an increase in Information Extr...
Image-based modeling of semi-transparent, dynamic phenomena is a challenging task. We present an optical tomography method that uses an adaptive grid for the reconstruction of a t...
For a discrete-time finite-state Markov chain, we develop an adaptive importance sampling scheme to estimate the expected total cost before hitting a set of terminal states. This s...
This paper addresses the problem of porting distributed parallel applications to the Grid. One of the challenges we address is the change from static homogeneous cluster environmen...
