Abstract—We present a unified graphical model framework for describing compound codes and deriving iterative decoding algorithms. After reviewing a variety of graphical models (...
Kernelization algorithms are polynomial-time reductions from a problem to itself that guarantee their output to have a size not exceeding some bound. For example, d-Set Matching f...
Probabilistic models have been adopted for many computer vision applications, however inference in highdimensional spaces remains problematic. As the statespace of a model grows, ...
Abstract. A Boolean function on N variables is called evasive if its decision-tree complexity is N. A sequence Bn of Boolean functions is eventually evasive if Bn is evasive for al...
A key step in the optimization of declarative queries over XML data is estimating the selectivity of path expressions, i.e., the number of elements reached by a specific navigatio...
