Given a record set D and a query score function F, a top-k query returns k records from D, whose values of function F on their attributes are the highest. In this paper, we investi...
Scalability and extended lifetime are two critical design goals of any large scale wireless sensor network. A two-tiered network model has been proposed recently for this purpose....
Recently, evolutionary computation has been successfully integrated into statistical learning methods. A Support Vector Machine (SVM) using evolution strategies for its optimizati...
Inspired by tensor voting, we present luminance voting, a novel approach for image registration with global and local luminance alignment. The key to our modeless approach is the ...
The paper presents some preliminary results on dynamic scheduling of model predictive controllers (MPCs). In an MPC, the control signal is obtained by on-line optimization of a co...
