In this paper, we report a decentralized algorithm, termed ImmuneSearch, for searching p2p networks. ImmuneSearch avoids query message flooding; instead it uses an immune-systems-...
This paper presents Prospector, an adaptive meta-search layer, which performs personalized re-ordering of search results. Prospector combines elements from two approaches to adapti...
Given a bounded universe {0, 1, . . . , U-1}, we show how to perform (successor) searches in O(log log ) expected time and updates in O(log log ) expected amortized time, where i...
Web search engines compete to offer the fastest responses with highest relevance. However, as Web collections grow, it becomes more difficult to achieve this purpose. As most user...
We consider the linear classification method consisting of separating two sets of points in d-space by a hyperplane. We wish to determine the hyperplane which minimises the sum of...
