In order to minimize redundancy and optimize coverage of multiple user interests, search engines and recommender systems aim to diversify their set of results. To date, these dive...
Abstract. This paper presents a novel approach to unsupervised texture segmentation that relies on a very general nonparametric statistical model of image neighborhoods. The method...
Online monitoring of a physical phenomenon over a geographical area is a popular application of sensor networks. Networks representative of this class of applications are typicall...
A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
Background: Protein structure comparison is a central issue in structural bioinformatics. The standard dissimilarity measure for protein structures is the root mean square deviati...
