It has been widely observed that search queries are composed in a very different style from that of the body or the title of a document. Many techniques explicitly accounting for...
We consider dense wireless sensor networks deployed to observe arbitrary random fields. The requirement is to reconstruct an estimate of the random field at a certain collector ...
Private information retrieval (PIR) enables a user to retrieve a data item from a database, replicated among one or more servers, while hiding the identity of the retrieved item. ...
Neural gas (NG) constitutes a very robust clustering algorithm which can be derived as stochastic gradient descent from a cost function closely connected to the quantization error...
