Selection of an optimal estimator typically relies on either supervised training samples (pairs of measurements and their associated true values), or a prior probability model for...
With reference to social constructivist approaches on citing behavior in the sciences, the hypothesis of acceleration of citing behavior after the millennium was empirically tested...
We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P of size n, our goal is to find a set C of size k such t...
