Complex systems experience dramatic changes in behavior and can undergo transitions from functional to dysfunctional states. An unstable system is prone to dysfunctional collective...
Cloud systems require elastic resource allocation to minimize resource provisioning costs while meeting service level objectives (SLOs). In this paper, we present a novel PRedictiv...
Although many algorithms have been developed to harvest lexical resources, few organize the mined terms into taxonomies. We propose (1) a semi-supervised algorithm that uses a roo...
Texture classification is a classical yet still active topic in computer vision and pattern recognition. Recently, several new texture classification approaches by modeling textur...
Behavior generation in humans and animals usually employs a combination of bottom-up and top-down patterns. Most available robotic architectures utilize either bottom-up or top-dow...
