"This course will consist of a number of major sections. The first will be a short review of some preliminary material, including asymptotics, summations, and recurrences and ...
We present DL8, an exact algorithm for finding a decision tree that optimizes a ranking function under size, depth, accuracy and leaf constraints. Because the discovery of optimal...
A novel indexing and access method, called Affinity Hybrid Tree (AH-Tree), is proposed to organize large image data sets efficiently and to support popular image access mechanisms...
