Images can affect people on an emotional level. Since the emotions that arise in the viewer of an image are highly subjective, they are rarely indexed. However there are situation...
Multi-view learning algorithms typically assume a complete bipartite mapping between the different views in order to exchange information during the learning process. However, ma...
A q-query Locally Decodable Code (LDC) encodes an n-bit message x as an N-bit codeword C(x), such that one can probabilistically recover any bit xi of the message by querying only...
Existing keyword-search systems in relational databases require users to submit a complete query to compute answers. Often users feel "left in the dark" when they have l...
