We consider a model of random trees similar to the split trees of Devroye [30] in which a set of items is recursively partitioned. Our model allows for more flexibility in the cho...
hey generalize these factors to the abstract concepts of ability, integrity, and benevolence. This model does not use probabilistic decision theory. Other SCM trust factors have be...
: We describe computer simulation of a number of associative models of classical conditioning in an attempt to assess the strengths and weaknesses of each model. The behavior of th...
This work presents an approach for realizing Model-Driven software engineering in the distributed and multi-developers context. It particularly focuses on the scalability problems...
This paper describes a unification of two different SQL extensions for streams and its associated semantics. We use the data models from Oracle and StreamBase as our examples. Ora...
This paper proposes a real-time 3D head tracking method that can handle large rotation and translation. To achieve this goal, we incorporate the following three approaches into th...
We consider an extension of the standard G/G/1 queue, described by the equation W D = max{0, B − A + Y W}, where P[Y = 1] = p and P[Y = −1] = 1 − p. For p = 1 this model red...
The bottleneck in interactive visual classification is the exchange of information between human and machine. We introduce the concept of the visible model, which is an ion of an ...
We study a generative model in which hidden causes combine competitively to produce observations. Multiple active causes combine to determine the value of an observed variable thr...
Among all peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, BitTorrent seems to be the most prevalent one. This success has drawn a great deal of research interest on the system. In particular, there h...
