User feedback has proven very successful to query large multimedia databases. Due to the nature of the data representation and the mismatch between mathematical models and human p...
We give new algorithms for a variety of randomly-generated instances of computational problems using a linearization technique that reduces to solving a system of linear equations...
This paper explores unexpected results that lie at the intersection of two common themes in the KDD community: large datasets and the goal of building compact models. Experiments ...
Social media sites (e.g., Flickr, YouTube, and Facebook) are a popular distribution outlet for users looking to share their experiences and interests on the Web. These sites host ...
Recently there has been significant interest in employing probabilistic techniques for fault localization. Using dynamic dependence information for multiple passing runs, learnin...
