Merging operators try to define the beliefs of a group of agents according to the beliefs of each member of the group. Several model-based propositional belief merging operators h...
The increasing throughput of sequencing raises growing needs for methods of sequence analysis and comparison on a genomic scale, notably, in connection with phylogenetic tree reco...
Determining similarities among multimedia objects is a fundamental task in many content-based retrieval, analysis, mining, and exploration applications. Among state-of-the-art sim...
The Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) is a similarity measure that captures perceptual difference between two distributions. Its computational complexity, however, prevents a direc...
In this study, we propose two algorithms for measuring the distance between shape boundaries. In the algorithms, shape boundary is represented by the Beam Angle Statistics (BAS), w...
