Wireless sensor networks with multiple users collecting data directly from the sensors have many potential applications. An important problem is to allocate for each user a query r...
Our aim is to investigate reliable transmission for multicast communication and explore its relationship to multicast routing. We derive two characterizations that enable the comp...
We develop the syntactic topic model (STM), a nonparametric Bayesian model of parsed documents. The STM generates words that are both thematically and syntactically constrained, w...
This paper formalizes Feature Selection as a Reinforcement Learning problem, leading to a provably optimal though intractable selection policy. As a second contribution, this pape...
Recent years have seen a significant increase in our understanding of high-dimensional nearest neighbor search (NNS) for distances like the 1 and 2 norms. By contrast, our underst...
