To provide users with only relevant data from the huge amount of available information, personalization systems utilize preferences to allow users to express their interest on spe...
It was shown recently [7?9], under quite general conditions, that retransmission-based protocols may result in power-law delays and possibly zero throughput even if the distributi...
We present a simple and practical algorithm for the c-approximate near neighbor problem (c-NN): given n points P Rd and radius R, build a data structure which, given q Rd , can ...
Abstract. We analyze the expected cost of a greedy active learning algorithm. Our analysis extends previous work to a more general setting in which different queries have differe...
Kernel functions are typically viewed as providing an implicit mapping of points into a high-dimensional space, with the ability to gain much of the power of that space without inc...
