Abstract. Over the past years, a number of increasingly expressive languages for modelling constraint and optimisation problems have evolved. In developing a strategy to ease the c...
Information foraging and sensemaking with heterogeneous information are context-dependent activities. Thus visual analytics tools to support these activities must incorporate cont...
We consider the problem of randomness extraction from independent sources. We construct an extractor that can extract from a constant number of independent sources of length n, ea...
In the KL divergence framework, the extended language modeling approach has a critical problem estimating a query model, which is the probabilistic model that encodes user’s inf...
Many large-scale networks such as ad hoc and sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks, or the Internet have the property that the number of independent nodes does not grow arbitrari...
