As computer and database technologies advance rapidly, biologists all over the world can share biologically meaningful data from images of specimens and use the data to classify th...
A distinction is usually made between wavelet bases and wavelet frames. The former are associated with a one-to-one representation of signals, which is somewhat constrained but mos...
In this paper, we exploit a novel ranking mechanism that processes query samples with noisy labels, motivated by the practical application of web image search re-ranking where the...
There is a close relationship between harmonic functions { which have recently been proposed for path planning { and hitting probabilities for random processes. The hitting probab...
We present new primal-dual algorithms for several network design problems. The problems considered are the generalized Steiner tree problem (GST), the directed Steiner tree proble...
