We propose new succinct representations of ordinal trees, which have been studied extensively. It is known that any n-node static tree can be represented in 2n + o(n) bits and a l...
In many learning problems prior knowledge about pattern variations can be formalized and beneficially incorporated into the analysis system. The corresponding notion of invarianc...
We examine condition numbers, preconditioners, and iterative methods for finite element discretizations of coercive PDEs in the context of the fundamental solvability result, the L...
Affinity functions are the core components in negative selection to discriminate self from non-self. It has been shown that affinity functions such as the r-contiguous distance an...
Grouping based on common motion, or “common fate” provides a powerful cue for segmenting image sequences. Recently a number of algorithms have been developed that successfully...
