We present a clustering scheme that combines a mode-seeking phase with a cluster merging phase in the corresponding density map. While mode detection is done by a standard graph-b...
In a typical content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system, query results are a set of images sorted by feature similarities with respect to the query. However, images with high fea...
We present a system for allocating resources in shared data and compute clusters that improves MapReduce job scheduling in three ways. First, the system uses regulated and user-as...
Most previous work on the recently developed languagemodeling approach to information retrieval focuses on document-specific characteristics, and therefore does not take into acc...
Recent research suggests that most of the real-world random networks organize themselves into communities. Communities are formed by subsets of nodes in a graph, which are closely...
