Today, a large body of research exists regarding the correctness of routing protocols. However, many reported global disruptions of Internet connectivity, e.g., inter-AS persisten...
Instance-based learning algorithms are widely used due to their capacity to approximate complex target functions; however, the performance of this kind of algorithms degrades signi...
High retrieval precision in content-based image retrieval can be attained by adopting relevance feedback mechanisms. These mechanisms require that the user judges the quality of t...
We consider the problem of ranking refinement, i.e., to improve the accuracy of an existing ranking function with a small set of labeled instances. We are, particularly, intereste...
Mashups are situational applications that build data flows to link the contents of multiple Web sources. Often times, ranking the results of a mashup is handled in a materializethe...
