We present a tutorial survey on some recent approaches to unsupervised machine learning in the context of statistical pattern recognition. In statistical PR, there are two classica...
Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is a fully generative approach to language modelling which overcomes the inconsistent generative semantics of Probabilistic Latent Semantic Index...
We conduct an experimental analysis of a distributed, randomized algorithm for edge coloring graphs. The algorithm is extremely simple, yet, according to the probabilistic analysi...

This paper presents a novel method for quickly filtering range data points to make object recognition in large 3D data sets feasible. The general approach, called "3D cueing,...
A shared disk implementation on distributed storage requires consistent behavior of disk operations. Deterministic consensus on such behavior is impossible when even a single stor...
