Content-based image retrieval requires a natural image (e.g, a photo) as query, but the absence of such a query image is usually the reason for a search. An easy way to express the...
In this paper, we propose a novel appearance-based representation, called Structured Ordinal Feature (SOF). SOF is a binary string encoded by combining eight ordinal blocks in a ci...

In spite of previous common assumptions about the incompatibility of public key cryptography (PKC) schemes with wireless sensor networks (WSNs), recent works have shown that they ...
We present a mathematical model for the problem of scheduling tests for core-based system-on-chip (SOC) VLSI designs. Given a set of tests for each core in the SOC and a set of te...
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...
