We consider the question of how well a given distribution can be approximated with probabilistic graphical models. We introduce a new parameter, effective treewidth, that captures...
Polynomial time complexity is the usual ‘threshold’ for distinguishing the tractable from the intractable and it may seem reasonable to adopt this notion of tractability in th...
It has been suggested that long-range intrinsic connections in striate cortex may play a role in contour extraction (Gilbert et al., 1996). A number of recent physiological and ps...
Abstract. Spiking Neuron Networks (SNNs) overcome the computational power of neural networks made of thresholds or sigmoidal units. Indeed, SNNs add a new dimension, the temporal a...

In this paper we propose a novel wide-band spectrum sensing scheme using compressive sensing. The wide-band signal is fed into a number of wide-band filters and the outputs of th...
