Robust Fitting of Implicit Polynomials with Quantized Coefficients to 2D Data
This work presents a new approach to contour representation and coding. It consists of an improved fitting of high-degree (4th to 18th ) implicit polynomials (IPs) to the contour,...

Employing EM and Pool-Based Active Learning for Text Classification
This paper shows how a text classifier's need for labeled training documents can be reduced by taking advantage of a large pool of unlabeled documents. We modify the Query-by...

Adaptive Compression of Graph Structured Text
In this paper we introduce an adaptive technique for compressing small quantities of text which are organized as a rooted directed graph. We impose a constraint on the technique s...
