We consider approximate pattern matching in natural language text. We use the words of the text as the alphabet, instead of the characters as in traditional string matching approac...
This paper presents recursive cavity modeling--a principled, tractable approach to approximate, near-optimal inference for large Gauss-Markov random fields. The main idea is to su...
In a wireless sensor network, short range multihop transmissions are preferred to prolong the network lifetime due to super-linear nature of energy consumption with communication d...

Signed distance functions (SDF) to explicit or implicit surface representations are intensively used in various computer graphics and visualization algorithms. Among others, they ...
We address the problem of spatial conservation planning in which the goal is to maximize the expected spread of cascades of an endangered species by strategically purchasing land ...
