Facial activities are the most natural and powerful means of human communication. Spontaneous facial activity is characterized by rigid head movements, non-rigid facial muscular m...
Association, or LD (linkage disequilibrium), mapping is an intensely-studied approach to gene mapping (genome-wide or in candidate regions) that is widely hoped to be able to effic...
We present lower bounds on the space required to estimate the quantiles of a stream of numerical values. Quantile estimation is perhaps the most studied problem in the data stream ...
In this paper, a series of window-based methods is proposed for information retrieval. Compared with traditional tf-idf model, our approaches are based on two new key notions. The ...
