This work presents a new statistical approach to region merging where regions are modeled as arbitrary discrete distributions, directly estimated from the pixel values. Under this...
Abstract. We consider the problem of sequence prediction in a probabilistic setting. Let there be given a class C of stochastic processes (probability measures on the set of one-wa...
In this paper, we propose a preference framework for information retrieval in which the user and the system administrator are enabled to express preference annotations on search ke...
In diagnostic decision-support systems, a test-selection facility serves to select tests that are expected to yield the largest decrease in the uncertainty about a patient’s diag...
Background: A new algorithm for assessing similarity between primer and template has been developed based on the hypothesis that annealing of primer to template is an information ...
