Abstract. Contemporary inferences about evolution occasionally involve analyzing infinitely large feature spaces, requiring specific algorithmic techniques. We consider parsimony a...
The design of moderate-length erasure correcting low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes over correlated erasure channels is considered. Although the asymptotic LDPC code design rema...
A distance oracle is a compact representation of the shortest distance matrix of a graph. It can be queried to retrieve approximate distances and corresponding paths between any p...
We propose a new distance measure for face recognition and human gait recognition. Each probe image (a face image or an average human silhouette image) is represented as a set of ...
—We consider approaches for similarity search in correlated, high-dimensional data-sets, which are derived within a clustering framework. We note that indexing by “vector appro...
