Motivated by operators simplifying the topographic map of a function, we study the theoretical properties of two kinds of "grain" filters. The first category, discovered ...
Many cache management schemes designed for mobile environments are based on invalidation reports (IRs). However, IR-based approach suffers from long query latency and it cannot eff...
If a, b and n are positive integers with b ≥ a and n ≥ 3, then the equation of the title possesses at most one solution in positive integers x and y, with the possible exceptio...
—Much of previous attention on decision trees focuses on the splitting criteria and optimization of tree sizes. The dilemma between overfitting and achieving maximum accuracy is ...
—We propose a novel image segmentation technique using the robust, adaptive least kth order squares (ALKS) estimator which minimizes the kth order statistics of the squared of re...
