A function on n variables is called a k-junta if it depends on at most k of its variables. In this article, we show that it is possible to test whether a function is a k-junta or ...
Relevance feedback has been proposed as an important technique to boost the retrieval performance in content-based image retrieval (CBIR). However, since there exists a semantic g...
Background: Detecting homology between remotely related protein families is an important problem in computational biology since the biological properties of uncharacterized protei...
Cloud services accessed through mobile devices suffer from high network access latencies and are constrained by energy budgets dictated by the devices’ batteries. Radio and batt...
A frequent type of query in spatial networks (e.g., road networks) is to find the K nearest neighbors (KNN) of a given query object. With these networks, the distances between ob...
