Spatial pyramid matching (SPM) is a simple yet effective approach to compute similarity between images. Similarity kernels at different regions and scales are usually fused by som...
In many dynamic matching applications—especially high-stakes ones—the competitive ratios of prior-free online algorithms are unacceptably poor. The algorithm should take distr...

Abstract. We present a bit-parallel technique to search a text of length n for a regular expression of m symbols permitting k differences in worst case time O(mn/ logk s), where s...
Abstract. The increasing complexity of today’s embedded systems applications imposes the requirements and constraints of distributed, heterogeneous subsystem interaction to softw...
