In surgical simulations, the two most popular approaches to model soft tissues are Finite Element Method (FEM) and Mass-Spring System (MSS). Main advantages of FEM are accuracy and...
For Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) with fully connected transition models, the three fundamental problems of evaluating the likelihood of an observation sequence, estimating an optim...
Graph-theoretic aggregation problems have been considered both in OLAP (grid graph) and XML (tree). This paper gives new results for MIN aggregation in a tree, where we want the M...
Finding similar structures from 3-D structure databases of proteins is becoming more and more important issue in the post-genomic molecular biology. To compare 3-D structures of tw...
Recently, at Crypto 2008, Boneh, Halevi, Hamburg, and Ostrovsky (BHHO) solved the longstanding open problem of "circular encryption," by presenting a public key encrypti...
