The detection of faces in images is fundamentally a rare event detection problem. Cascade classifiers provide an efficient computational solution, by leveraging the asymmetry in t...
We explore combining reinforcement learning with a hand-crafted local controller in a manner suggested by the chaotic control algorithm of Vincent, Schmitt and Vincent (1994). A c...
We consider a model in which background knowledge on a given domain of interest is available in terms of a Bayesian network, in addition to a large database. The mining problem is...
If current technology scaling trends hold, leakage power dissipation will soon become the dominant source of power consumption in high performance processors. Caches, due to the f...
Given an undirected graph or an Eulerian directed graph G and a subset S of its vertices, we show how to determine the edge connectivity C of the vertices in S in time O(C3 n log ...
