Knowledge refinement tools rely on a representative set of training examples to identify and repair faults in a knowledge based system (KBS). In real environments it is often diffi...
Point clouds are one of the most primitive and fundamental surface representations. A popular source of point clouds are three dimensional shape acquisition devices such as laser ...
A new spectral approach to value function approximation has recently been proposed to automatically construct basis functions from samples. Global basis functions called proto-val...
Many existing peer-to-peer content distribution networks (CDNs) such as Na Kika, CoralCDN, and CoDeeN are deployed on PlanetLab, a relatively trusted environment. But scaling them...
We present a new deterministic sorting algorithm that interleaves the partitioning of a sample sort with merging. Sequentially, it sorts n elements in O(n log n) time cache-oblivi...
