We consider the problem of defining the significance of an itemset. We say that the itemset is significant if we are surprised by its frequency when compared to the frequencies of ...
A simple statistical block code in combination with the LZW-based compression utilities gzip and compress has been found to increase by a significant amount the level of compressi...
We investigate determining the exact bounds of the frequencies of conjunctions based on frequent sets. Our scenario is an important special case of some general probabilistic logi...
Hierarchical phrase-based (HPB) translation provides a powerful mechanism to capture both short and long distance phrase reorderings. However, the phrase reorderings lack of conte...
An efficient hierarchical approach for image multi-level thresholding is proposed based on the maximum entropy principle and Bayes' formula, in which no assumptions of the im...
