The mean is often the most important statistic of a dataset as it provides a single point that summarizes the entire set. While the mean is readily defined and computed in Euclid...
In this paper, we present a new multi-packing tree (MP-tree) representation for macro placement to handle mixed-size designs. Based on binary trees, the MP-tree is very efficient,...
Distributed Lagrangian Relaxation Protocol (DisLRP) has been proposed to solve a distributed combinatorial maximization problem called the Generalized Mutual Assignment Problem (G...
Speech recognition technique is expected to make a great impact on many user interface areas such as toys, mobile phones, PDAs, and home appliances. Those applications basically re...
A significant challenge in Text-to-Speech (TtS) synthesis is the formulation of the prosodic structures (phrase breaks, pitch accents, phrase accents and boundary tones) of uttera...
