We introduce a new model for semantic annotation and retrieval from image databases. The new model is based on a probabilistic formulation that poses annotation and retrieval as c...
Compilers employ system models, sometimes implicitly, to make code optimization decisions. These models are analytic; they reflect their implementor’s understanding and beliefs ...
Enforced hill-climbing is an effective deterministic hillclimbing technique that deals with local optima using breadth-first search (a process called "basin flooding"). ...
In this paper we explore private computation built on vector addition and its applications in privacypreserving data mining. Vector addition is a surprisingly general tool for imp...
One of the most important, common and critical management issues lies in determining the "best" project portfolio out of a given set of investment proposals. As this dec...
