Software Systems permeate just about every aspect of life throughout developed and industrialised nations today. When failures arise, the aftermath is highly complicated because t...
Usability comprises the aspects effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction. The correlations between these aspects are not well understood for complex tasks. We present data from...
: The generic problem of estimation and inference given a sequence of i.i.d. samples has been extensively studied in the statistics, property testing, and learning communities. A n...
We introduce a non-linear shape prior for the deformable model framework that we learn from a set of shape samples using recent manifold learning techniques. We model a category o...
We give a constant factor approximation algorithm for the following generalization of the k-median problem. We are given a set of clients and facilities in a metric space. Each fa...
