Parallel algorithm designers need computational models that take first order system costs into account, but are also simple enough to use in practice. This paper introduces the L...
Most similarity search techniques map the data objects into some high-dimensional feature space. The similarity search then corresponds to a nearest-neighbor search in the feature...
In this paper we introduce the ConSet communication model for distributed memory parallel computers. The communication needs of an application program can be satisfied by some ar...
Abstract. We design an effective shape prior embedded human silhouettes extraction algorithm. Human silhouette extraction is found challenging because of articulated structures, po...
We consider a virtual computing environment that provides computational resources on demand to users with multiattribute task descriptions that include a valuation, resource (CPU)...
