In many practical scenarios, nodes gathering at points of interest yield sizable connected components (clusters), which sometimes comprise the majority of nodes. While recent anal...
—The advent of distributed and ad-hoc-connected systems such as in Ambient Intelligence applications confronts developers with the question on how to specify QoS- and security po...
Determinantal point processes (DPPs), which arise in random matrix theory and quantum physics, are natural models for subset selection problems where diversity is preferred. Among...
This paper considers additive factorial hidden Markov models, an extension to HMMs where the state factors into multiple independent chains, and the output is an additive function...
In this paper, we tackle the problem of understanding the temporal structure of complex events in highly varying videos obtained from the Internet. Towards this goal, we utilize a...
