Many real life domains contain a mixture of discrete and continuous variables and can be modeled as hybrid Bayesian Networks (BNs). An important subclass of hybrid BNs are conditi...
We study a detection-theoretic approach to steganalysis. The relative entropy between covertext and stegotext determines the steganalyzer's difficulty in discriminating them,...
We investigate the shortest common superstring problem (SCSSP). As SCSSP is APX-complete it cannot be approximated within an arbitrarily small performance ratio. One heuristic tha...
ATM switches have to provide traffic management functions to meet the QoS requirements of different service categories. Among the traffic management functions we will focus on con...
