Collaborative decoding is an approach that can achieve diversity and combining gain by exchanging decoding information among a cluster of physically separated receivers. On AWGN ch...
The language modeling approach to retrieval has been shown to perform well empirically. One advantage of this new approach is its statistical foundations. However, feedback, as on...
News articles about the same event published over time have properties that challenge NLP and IR applications. A cluster of such texts typically exhibits instances of paraphrase a...
Large data centers host several application environments (AEs) that are subject to workloads whose intensity varies widely and unpredictably. Therefore, the servers of the data ce...
This paper proposes a statistical approach to degraded handwritten form image preprocessing including binarization and form line removal. The degraded image is modeled by a Markov...
