We present a probabilistic model for a document corpus that combines many of the desirable features of previous models. The model is called “GaP” for Gamma-Poisson, the distri...
Binary search tree (BST) based data structures, such as AVL trees, red-black trees, and splay trees, are often used in system software, such as operating system kernels. Choosing ...
The emergence of the world-wide-web has led to an increased interest in methods for searching for information. A key characteristic of many of the online document collections is t...
This paper proposes an estimation of distribution algorithm (EDA) aiming at addressing globally multimodal problems, i.e., problems that present several global optima. It can be r...
With the proliferation of multimedia data, there is increasing need to support the indexing and searching of high dimensional data. Recently, a vector approximation based techniqu...
