Incorporating probabilities into the semantics of incomplete databases has posed many challenges, forcing systems to sacrifice modeling power, scalability, or treatment of relatio...
Functional mixed-effects models are very useful in analyzing functional data. A general functional mixed-effects model that inherits the flexibility of linear mixed-effects model...
—Many complex dynamical phenomena can be effectively modeled by a system that switches among a set of conditionally linear dynamical modes. We consider two such models: the switc...

There are many algorithms to cluster sample data points based on nearness or a similarity measure. Often the implication is that points in different clusters come from different u...

In this paper, we take a predefined geometry shape as a constraint for accurate shape alignment. A shape model is divided in two parts: fixed shape and active shape. The fixed shap...
