Army ant colonies display complex foraging raid patterns involving thousands of individuals communicating through chemical trails. In this article we explore, by means of a simple ...
We present a comparative evaluation of two data-driven models used in translation selection of English-Korean machine translation. Latent semantic analysis(LSA) and probabilistic ...
In a traditional information retrieval system, it is assumed that queries can be posed about any topic. In reality, a large fraction of web queries are posed about a relatively sm...
We examine a computational geometric problem concerning the structure of polymers. We model a polymer as a polygonal chain in three dimensions. Each edge splits the polymer into t...
This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
