—This paper presents an Improved Snake Model (ISM) effective for performing fast image segmentation. The work takes advantage of two well-known snake models of Balloon [1] and GG...
We introduce a new EM framework in which it is possible not only to optimize the model parameters but also the number of model components. A key feature of our approach is that we...
In data warehousing applications, the ability to efficiently delete large chunks of data from a table is very important. This feature is also known as Rollout. Rollout is generall...
In this paper we consider a general class of single-server multiqueue systems in which the stability of any single queue can be essentially determined by the queue’s arrival rat...
