We consider the task of reinforcement learning in an environment in which rare significant events occur independently of the actions selected by the controlling agent. If these ev...
—In this paper we present a novel approach for fast search of handwritten Arabic word-parts within large lexicons. The algorithm runs through three steps to achieve the required ...
A broad spectrum of network measurement applications demand passive multipoint measurements in which data from multiple observation points has to be correlated. Examples are the p...
This paper studies Data Stream Management Systems that combine real-time data streams with historical data, and hence access incoming streams and archived data simultaneously. A s...
In this paper we investigate two aspects of ranking problems on large graphs. First, we augment the deterministic pruning algorithm in Sarkar and Moore (2007) with sampling techni...
