There is evidence that the numbers in probabilistic inference don't really matter. This paper considers the idea that we can make a probabilistic model simpler by making fewe...
We present a simple algorithmic extension of the classical call-strings approach to mitigate substantial performance degradation caused by spurious interprocedural cycles. Spuriou...
Abstract—We introduce schema covering, the problem of identifying easily understandable common objects for describing large and complex schemas. Defining transformations between...
1 In the complexity and simulation communities there is growing support for the use of bottom-up computer-based simulation in the analysis of complex systems. The presumption is th...
Multimedia databases deal with storage and retrieval of complex descriptors of image contents, called features. Traditional techniques consider features as “black boxes,” ofte...
