Global color characterization is a very powerful tool to model in a simple yet discriminant way the visual appearance of complex objects. A fixed reference model of this type can ...
We consider the problem of improving named entity recognition (NER) systems by using external dictionaries--more specifically, the problem of extending state-of-the-art NER system...
eal world”, represented abstractly using (time-varying) first-order logic predicates and terms. A representative composition result [11] here uses a translation into Petri nets. ...
We initiate the study of probabilistic parallel programs with dynamic process creation and synchronisation. To this end, we introduce probabilistic split-join systems (pSJSs), a mo...
We present a parallel data processor centered around a programming model of so called Parallelization Contracts (PACTs) and the scalable parallel execution engine Nephele [18]. Th...
