An important research issue in multimedia databases is the retrieval of similar objects. For most applications in multimedia databases, an exact search is not meaningful. Thus, mu...
Superposition of radial basis functions centered at given prototype patterns constitutes one of the most suitable energy forms for gradient systems that perform nearest neighbor c...
In this paper we use the tools of the convex analysis in order to give a suitable characterization for the epigraph of the conjugate of the pointwise maximum of two proper, convex ...
ABSTRACT. We prove the rationality of the generating function associated to the number of equivalence classes of Fqk -points of a constructible equivalence relation defined over t...
