In Toronto's Kanata project, we are investigating the integration and exchange of data and metadata in dynamic, autonomous environments. Our focus is on the development and m...
Abstract. This paper describes a new approach for parameter optimization that uses a novel representation for the parameters to be optimized. By using genetic programming, the new ...
The Reeb graph of a scalar function represents the evolution of the topology of its level sets. In this video, we describe a near-optimal output-sensitive algorithm for computing ...
This paper presents StepTree, an information visualization tool designed for depicting hierarchies, such as directory structures. StepTree is similar to the hierarchy-visualization...
Until recently, most data integration techniques involved central components, e.g., global schemas, to enable transparent access to heterogeneous databases. Today, however, with t...
