Abstract. The much-publicized Netflix competition has put the spotlight on the application domain of collaborative filtering and has sparked interest in machine learning algorithms...
Test-driven development (TDD) is an agile software development strategy that addresses both design and testing. This paper describes a controlled experiment that examines the effe...
We extend the resistance distance kernel to the domain of signed dissimilarity values, and show how it can be applied to collaborative rating prediction. The resistance distance is...
Motivated by the hierarchical multiscale image representation of Tadmor et al.,1 we propose a novel integrodifferential equation (IDE) for a multiscale image representation. To th...
Local ratio is a well-known paradigm for designing approximation algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. At a very high level, a local-ratio algorithm first decomposes ...
