Consider mobile targets moving in a plane and their movements being monitored by a network such as a field of sensors. We develop distributed algorithms for in-network tracking an...
Dimensionality reduction plays an important role in many machine learning and pattern recognition tasks. In this paper, we present a novel dimensionality reduction algorithm calle...
Most operations of the relational algebra or SQL - like projection with duplicate elimination, join, ordering, group by and aggregations - are efficiently processed using a sorted...
We introduce a new, powerful class of text proximity queries: find an instance of a given "answer type" (person, place, distance) near "selector" tokens matchi...
