If a, b and n are positive integers with b ≥ a and n ≥ 3, then the equation of the title possesses at most one solution in positive integers x and y, with the possible exceptio...
Consider the Vandermonde-like matrix P := (Pk(cos jπ N ))N j,k=0, where the polynomials Pk satisfy a three-term recurrence relation. If Pk are the Chebyshev polynomials Tk, then P...
A detailed exposition of Kneser’s neighbour method for quadratic lattices over totally real number fields, and of the sub-procedures needed for its implementation, is given. Usi...
To achieve a face recognition system robust to the presence of glasses, we have developped a glasses detection and extraction algorithm. Detection is realized using edge informati...
The KDD process aims at the discovery and extraction of “useful” knowledge (such as interesting patterns, classification, rules etc) from large data repositories. A widely rec...
