Pseudo-relevance feedback has proven effective for improving the average retrieval performance. Unfortunately, many experiments have shown that although pseudo-relevance feedback...
Existing autocalibration techniques use numerical optimization algorithms that are prone to the problem of local minima. To address this problem, we have developed a method where ...
The aim of this work is to propose an adaptation of optimal path based interactive tools for image segmentation (related to Live-Wire [12] and Intelligent Scissors [18] approaches)...
We address the problem of performance and power-efficient thread allocation in a CMP. To that end, based on analytical model, we introduce a parameterized performance/power metric ...
We consider a problem that arises during the propagation of subscriptions in a contentbased publish-subscribe system. Subscription covering is a promising optimization that reduce...
