The issue of ®nding similar 3-D surface segments arises in many recent applications of spatial database systems, such as molecular biology, medical imaging, CAD, and geographic i...
We present a hierarchicaltechniquefor floorplanning and pin assignment of the general cell layouts. Given a set of cells with their shape lists, a layout aspect ratio, relative po...

We illustrate a simple algorithm for approximating the medial axis of a 2D shape with smooth boundary from a sample of this boundary. The algorithm is compared to a more general a...
We describe a method to improve detection of disease outbreaks in pre-diagnostic time series data. The method uses multiple forecasters and learns the linear combination to minimi...
We propose a trace fitting algorithm for Markovian Arrival Processes (MAPs) that can capture statistics of any order of interarrival times between measured events. By studying re...
