This paper presents a novel local image descriptor that is robust to general image deformations. A limitation with traditional image descriptors is that they use a single support ...
In many complex machine learning applications there is a need to learn multiple interdependent output variables, where knowledge of these interdependencies can be exploited to impr...
In many multi-agent applications such as distributed sensor nets, a network of agents act collaboratively under uncertainty and local interactions. Networked Distributed POMDP (ND...
Federated transaction management (also known as multidatabase transaction management in the literature) is needed to ensure the consistency of data that is distributed across mult...
