We introduce a new technique for constructing a family of universal hash functions. At its center is a simple metaphor: to hash a string x, cast each of its words into a small numb...
The unfolding of a system represents in a single branching structure all its possible computations: it is the cornerstone both of semantical constructions and of efficient partial ...
Techniques of reliable computing, like interval arithmetic, can be used to guarantee reliable solutions even in the presence of numerical round-off errors. The need to trace bounds...
One of the great challenges today is to index videos with high-level semantic concepts or features. The basis of our approach is to use a fuzzy decision trees (FDT) to construct t...
In this paper, we discuss the design and engineering of the PolyBot board, a custom robot controller board. This board has many features which make it suitable for use in the desi...
