Many machine learning algorithms for clustering or dimensionality reduction take as input a cloud of points in Euclidean space, and construct a graph with the input data points as...
I/O is a major performance bottleneck in modern computer systems. Modern disks use the Zone-Bit-Recording (ZBR) technology to increase the capacity. A direct consequence of ZBR is...
We propose a novel a framework for deriving approximations for intractable probabilistic models. This framework is based on a free energy (negative log marginal likelihood) and ca...
Structured peer-to-peer hash tables provide decentralization, self-organization, failure-resilience, and good worst-case lookup performance for applications, but suffer from high ...
: Oracle's objective in TREC-10 was to study the behavior of Oracle information retrieval in previously unexplored application areas. The software used was Oracle9i Text[1], O...
