—Video-on-Demand (VoD) services have attracted a lot of attentions in recent years. Measurement studies show that VCR (Video Cassette Recorder) operations, such as pause, rewind,...
We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
Support vector machines (SVMs) have been widely used in multimedia retrieval to learn a concept in order to find the best matches. In such a SVM active learning environment, the ...
In order to enable scalable querying of graph databases, intelligent selection of subgraphs to index is essential. An improved index can reduce response times for graph queries si...
