The use of random fields, which allows one to take into account the spatial interaction among random variables in complex systems, is a frequent tool in numerous problems of stati...
An estimation algorithm for a query is a probabilistic algorithm that computes an approximation for the size (number of tuples) of the query. One class of estimation algorithms us...
Being exposed to well-written code is a valuable experience for students -- especially when the code is larger or more complex than they are currently capable of writing. In addit...
Environment matting is a generalization of traditional bluescreen matting. By photographing an object in front of a sequence of structured light backdrops, a set of approximate li...
