In this paper, we propose a novel proxy caching scheme for Video on Demand (VoD) services. Our approach is based on an observation we have made during subjective VoD performance e...
This paper proposes a new architecture for memorybased floating-point numeric function generators (NFGs). The design method uses piecewise-split edge-valued multivalued decision ...
We give a practical and provably good Monte Carlo algorithm for approximating center points. Let P be a set of n points in IRd . A point c ∈ IRd is a β-center point of P if eve...

Planning in partially-observable dynamical systems (such as POMDPs and PSRs) is a computationally challenging task. Popular approximation techniques that have proved successful ar...

This paper proposes a new approach to describe the salient contours in cluttered scenes. No need to do the preprocessing, such as edge detection, we directly use a set of random s...
