Many important problems involve clustering large datasets. Although naive implementations of clustering are computationally expensive, there are established efficient techniques f...
ngly better objective function value until an optimal solution is reached. From an abstract point of view, an augmentation problem is solved in each iteration. That is, given a fea...
There has been an explosion of hyperlinked data in many domains, e.g., the biological Web. Expressive query languages and effective ranking techniques are required to convert this...
Finding useful patterns in large datasets has attracted considerable interest recently, and one of the most widely st,udied problems in this area is the identification of clusters...
Real-time rendering of vegetation is one of the most important challenges in outdoor scenes. This is due to the vast amount of polygons that are used to model vegetable species. M...
