Continuous k-Means Monitoring over Moving Objects
Given a dataset P, a k-means query returns k points in space (called centers), such that the average squared distance between each point in P and its nearest center is minimized. S...

Segmentation and appearance model building from an image sequence
In this paper we explore the problem of accurately segmenting a person from a video given only approximate location of that person. Unlike previous work which assumes that the app...

Relaxation in text search using taxonomies
In this paper we propose a novel document retrieval model in which text queries are augmented with multi-dimensional taxonomy restrictions. These restrictions may be relaxed at a ...

Optimizing through Co-evolutionary Avalanches
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...
