Abstract. Recent proposals have shown that database replication providing 1copy-serializability can have excellent performance in LAN environments by using powerful multicast primi...
We present an inherently discriminative approach to face recognition. This is achieved by automatically selecting key points from lines that sketch the face and extracting textural...
Novel speech features calculated from third-order statistics of subband-filtered speech signals are introduced and studied for robust speech recognition. These features have the p...

: While feature selection is very difficult for high dimensional, unstructured data such as face image, it may be much easier to do if the data can be faithfully transformed into l...
Abstract. In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorit...
