Thin plate spline interpolation is a widely used approach to generate a digital elevation model (DEM) from contour lines and scattered data. In practice, contour maps are scanned a...
Abstract. We present a method to extract a time series (Number of Active Requests (NAR)) from web cache logs which serves as a transport level measurement of internet traffic. This...
A class of trust-region methods is presented for solving unconstrained nonlinear and possibly nonconvex discretized optimization problems, like those arising in systems governed by...

Generating query-biased summaries can take up a large part of the response time of interactive information retrieval (IIR) systems. This paper proposes to use document titles as a...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider the problem of calculating fast and accurate approximations to the personalized PageRank score of a webpage. We focus on techniques to improve ...
