Using an open-source, Java toolkit of name-matching methods, we experimentally compare string distance metrics on the task of matching entity names. We investigate a number of dif...

In this paper, for some linear block codes, two kinds of optimum distance profiles (ODPs) are introduced to consider how to construct and then exclude (or include) the basis codewo...
We describe a method for learning statistical models of images using a second-order hidden Markov mesh model. First, an image can be segmented in a way that best matches its stati...

Abstract. This paper examines secure two-party computation of functions which depend only on the Hamming distance of the inputs of the two parties. We present efficient protocols f...
Abstract. After text retrieval, the next waves in web searching and multimedia retrieval are the search for and delivery of images, music, video, and 3D scenes. Not only the percep...
