In this paper, we consider the exploration of topological environments by a robot with weak sensory capabilities. We assume only that the robot can recognize when it has reached a...
The Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) of operation has been standardized by NIST to provide single-pass authenticated encryption. The GHASH authentication component of GCM belongs to a cla...
Boosting is a simple yet powerful modeling technique that is used in many machine learning and data mining related applications. In this paper, we propose a novel scale-space based...
Boosting algorithms build highly accurate prediction mechanisms from a collection of lowaccuracy predictors. To do so, they employ the notion of weak-learnability. The starting po...
Standard hybrid learners that use domain knowledge require stronger knowledge that is hard and expensive to acquire. However, weaker domain knowledge can benefit from prior knowle...
