Recent scaling up of decentralized partially observable Markov decision process (DEC-POMDP) solvers towards realistic applications is mainly due to approximate methods. Of this fa...
We study the problem of continuous monitoring of top-k queries over multiple non-synchronized streams. Assuming a sliding window model, this general problem has been a well addres...
Sequence matching techniques are effective for comparing two videos. However, existing approaches suffer from demanding computational costs and thus are not scalable for large-sca...
The representation of information collections needs to be optimized for human cognition. While documents often include rich visual components, collections, including personal coll...
A multi-object operation incurs communication or synchronization overhead when the requested objects are distributed over different nodes. The object pair correlations (the probab...
