Background: Predictive microbiology develops mathematical models that can predict the growth rate of a microorganism population under a set of environmental conditions. Many prima...
This lecture treats some enduring misconceptions about modeling. One of these is that the goal is always prediction. The lecture distinguishes between explanation and prediction a...
The current standard image-compression approaches rely on fairly simple predictions, using either block- or wavelet-based methods. While many more sophisticated texture-modeling a...
In inter-picture coding, block-based frequency transform is usually carried out on the predicted errors for each interblock to remove the spatial correlation among them. However, ...
Even with todays hardware improvements, performance problems are still common in many software systems. An approach to tackle this problem for component-based software architectur...
