Approximate distributed top- k queries
We consider a distributed system where each node keeps a local count for items (similar to elections where nodes are ballot boxes and items are candidates). A top-k query in such ...

Affine Arithmetic Based Estimation of Cue Distributions in Deformable Model Tracking
In this paper we describe a statistical method for the integration of an unlimited number of cues within a deformable model framework. We treat each cue as a random variable, each...
