Understanding the energy consumption of flash devices is important for two reasons. First, energy is emerging as a key metric for data management systems. It is thus important to ...
Human superiority over computers in identifying natural objects like clouds, water, grass etc. comes from two capabilities: the capability to maintain a growing knowledge base per...
Gowers [Gow98, Gow01] introduced, for d 1, the notion of dimension-d uniformity Ud (f) of a function f : G C, where G is a finite abelian group. Roughly speaking, if a function ...
We propose a novel MRF-based model for deformable image matching (also known as registration). The deformation is described by a field of discrete variables, representing displace...
We continue the study of approximating the number of distinct elements in a data stream of length n to within a (1? ) factor. It is known that if the stream may consist of arbitra...
