—Sensor network localization is an instance of the NP-HARD graph realization problem. Thus, methods used in practice are not guaranteed to find the correct localization, even if...
A lease is a token which grants its owner exclusive access to a resource for a defined span of time. In order to be able to tolerate failures, leases need to be coordinated by di...
In this paper, we propose a novel multi-dimensional distributed hidden Markov model (DHMM) framework. We first extend the theory of 2D hidden Markov models (HMMs) to arbitrary ca...
In this paper, a framework for replacing missing values in a database is proposed since a real-world database is seldom complete. Good data quality in a database can directly impr...
Inference of topological and geometric attributes of a hidden manifold from its point data is a fundamental problem arising in many scientific studies and engineering application...
