Characterising the differences between two databases is an often occurring problem in Data Mining. Detection of change over time is a prime example, comparing databases from two b...
In this paper, we present a novel segmentationinsensitive approach for mining common patterns from 2 images. We develop an algorithm using the Earth Movers Distance (EMD) framewor...
This paper describes a method for definition question answering based on the use of surface text patterns. The method is specially suited to answer questions about person's po...
We describe an algorithm for the automatic discovery of recurring patterns in protein structures. The patterns consist of individual residues having a defined order along the prote...
Open-class semantic lexicon induction is of great interest for current knowledge harvesting algorithms. We propose a general framework that uses patterns in bootstrapping fashion ...
