Submodular maximization generalizes many important problems including Max Cut in directed/undirected graphs and hypergraphs, certain constraint satisfaction problems and maximum f...
PageRank is an algorithm used by several search engines to rank web documents according to their assumed relevance and popularity deduced from the Web’s link structure. PageRank...
Clustering is inherently a difficult task and is made even more difficult when the selection of relevant features is also an issue. In this paper, we propose an approach for simult...
We introduce the problem of domain adaptation for content-based retrieval and propose a domain adaptation method based on relative aggregation points (RAPs). Content-based retriev...
The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
