We propose two fast algorithms for abrupt change detection in streaming data that can operate on arbitrary unknown data distributions before and after the change. The first algor...
Some compilation systems, such as offline partial evaluators and selective dynamic compilation systems, support staged optimizations. A staged optimization is one where a logicall...
