A second-order hierarchical uncertainty model of a system of independent random variables is studied in the paper. It is shown that the complex nonlinear optimization problem for ...
Equality constraints (unification constraints) have widespread use in program analysis, most notably in static polymorphic type systems. Conditional equality constraints extend eq...
constraint solver. The other infers annotations on bound variables in function abstractions by propagating type constraints downward from enclosing application nodes. We motivate o...
We initiate the study of exact geometric algorithms that require limited storage and make only a small number of passes over the input. Fundamental problems such as lowdimensional...
The production of closed captions is an important but expensive process in video broadcasting. We propose a method to generate highly accurate off-line captions efficiently. Our s...
