We study keyword auctions in a model where each advertiser has a value for every slot, which is not necessarily proportional to the number of clicks the advertiser expects to rece...
Abstract. In this paper, we present a new approach to indexing multidimensional data that is particularly suitable for the efficient incremental processing of nearest neighbor quer...
We describe a recursive algorithm to quickly compute the N nearest neighbors according to a similarity measure in a metric space. The algorithm exploits an intrinsic property of a...
Abstract. In this paper we develop a localized value-ordering heuristic for distributed resource allocation problems. We show how this value ordering heuristics can be used to achi...
Abstract. The distribution of a class of objects, such as images depicting a specific topic, can be studied by observing the best-matching units (BMUs) of the objects’ feature v...
