This paper reports results from a failure analysis (i.e., incorrect query construction) of 51,473 queries from 18,113 users of Excite, a major Web search engine. Given that many d...
This paper presents a decomposition method for efficiently constructing 1-norm Support Vector Machines (SVMs). The decomposition algorithm introduced in this paper possesses many d...
Large terrain databases require a great number of polygons and textures. In consequence, transmission of terrain data over slow networks is still worrying. Multiresolution models ...
This paper examines the problem of database organization and retrieval based on computing metric pairwise distances. A low-dimensional Euclidean approximation of a high-dimensiona...
We present a new meshing algorithm for the plane, Overlay Stitch Meshing (OSM), accepting as input an arbitrary Planar Straight Line Graph and producing a triangulation with all an...
