Several operations of Web-based applications are optimized with respect to the set of resources that will receive the majority of requests in the near future, namely the hot set. U...
Most tracking algorithms implicitly apply a coarse segmentation of each target object using a simple mask such as a rectangle or an ellipse. Although convenient, such coarse segme...
In spite of the initialization problem, the ExpectationMaximization (EM) algorithm is widely used for estimating the parameters in several data mining related tasks. Most popular ...
