The Support Vector Machine (SVM) of Vapnik [9] has become widely established as one of the leading approaches to pattern recognition and machine learning. It expresses predictions...
Characterizing mobility or contact patterns in a campus environment is of interest for a variety of reasons. Existing studies of these patterns can be classified into two basic a...
We present a technique for rapid capture of high quality bidirectional reflection distribution functions(BRDFs) of surface points. Our method represents the BRDF at each point by ...
In this paper we propose a fundamental approach to perform the class of Nearest Neighbor (NN) queries, the core class of queries used in many of the location-based services, withou...
The design and evaluation of microprocessor architectures is a difficult and time-consuming task. Although small, handcoded microbenchmarks can be used to accelerate performance e...
