We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P of size n, our goal is to find a set C of size k such t...
We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...
Multimedia Data Mining requires the ability to automatically analyze and understand the content. The Community of Multimedia Agents project (COMMA) is devoted to creating an open ...
At the present time, several shortcomings prevent the more effective use and more intense application of web information systems. Recent developments that are subsumed by the term...
Based on the potential of current programmable GPUs, recently several approaches were developed that use the GPU to calculate deformations of surfaces like the folding of cloth or...
