VLSI placement tools usually work in two steps: First, the cells that have to be placed are roughly spread out over the chip area ignoring disjointness (global placement). Then, i...
Existing studies on time series are based on two categories of distance functions. The first category consists of the Lp-norms. They are metric distance functions but cannot supp...
Dimensional reduction is a simplification technique that eliminates one or more dimensions from a boundary value problem. It results in significant computational savings with mini...
Levin introduced an average-case complexity measure, based on a notion of \polynomialon average," and de ned \average-case polynomial-time many-one reducibility" amongra...
A key problem for "face in the crowd" recognition from existing surveillance cameras in public spaces (such as mass transit centres) is the issue of pose mismatches betwe...
