Systems based on statistical and machine learning methods have been shown to be extremely effective and scalable for the analysis of large amount of textual data. However, in the r...
Acoustic event detection (AED) aims to identify both timestamps and types of multiple events and has been found to be very challenging. The cues for these events often times exist...

We describe a decentralized, adaptive mechanism for replica location in wide-area distributed systems. Unlike traditional, hierarchical (e.g, DNS) and more recent (e.g., CAN, Chor...
Algebraic Point Set Surfaces (APSS) define a smooth surface from a set of points using local moving least-squares (MLS) fitting of algebraic spheres. In this paper we first revisi...
Abstract. Bottom-up approaches, which rely mainly on continuity principles, are often insufficient to form accurate segments in natural images. In order to improve performance, rec...
