Usage-based pricing of offered traffic to a data network can be an effective technique for congestion control. To gain insight into the benejits usage-based pricing offers, we pro...
We introduce a new inference algorithm for Dirichlet process mixture models. While Gibbs sampling and variational methods focus on local moves, the new algorithm makes more global...
Dealing with verbose (or long) queries poses a new challenge for information retrieval. Selecting a subset of the original query (a "sub-query") has been shown to be an ...
