Fast query processing of complex objects, e.g. spatial or uncertain objects, depends on efficient spatial pruning of the objects’ approximations, which are typically minimum bou...
The field of pairwise clustering is currently dominated by the idea of dividing a set of objects into disjoints classes, thereby giving rise to (hard) partitions of the input dat...
The elastic net and related algorithms, such as generative topographic mapping, are key methods for discretized dimension-reduction problems. At their heart are priors that specify...
Interconnect delay dominates system delay in modern circuits, and with reduced feature sizes, coupling capacitance and signal crosstalk have become significant issues. By spacing...
In modern computer systems the performance is dominated by the memory performance. Currently, there is neither a systematic design methodology nor a tool for the design of memory ...
