Reachability queries on large directed graphs have attracted much attention recently. The existing work either uses spanning structures, such as chains or trees, to compress the c...
This paper proposes a new technique of figureground discrimination of color characters in scene images following two steps. The first step is temporary binarization by selecting o...
Recently, advances have been made in continuous, normal– distribution–based Estimation–of–Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) by scaling the variance up from the maximum–like...
We present a new statistical compression method, which we call Phrase Based Dense Code (PBDC), aimed at compressing large digital libraries. PBDC compresses the text collection to ...
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) has been shown to be an efficient clustering tool. However, NMF`s batch nature necessitates recomputation of whole basis set for new samples...
