We propose a new method to measure “visualness” of concepts, that is, what extent concepts have visual characteristics. To know which concept has visually discriminative power...
In many important applications, a collection of mutually distrustful parties must perform private computation over multisets. Each party’s input to the function is his private i...
Adaptation is an essential requirement for self–organizing multi–agent systems functioning in unknown dynamic environments. Adaptation allows agents, e.g., robots, to change th...
Computational heuristics are the primary methods for reconstruction of phylogenetic trees on large datasets. Most large-scale phylogenetic analyses produce numerous trees that are ...
Recognition under illumination variations is a challenging problem. The key is to successfully separate the illumination source from the observed appearance. Once separated, what ...
