Geospatial data-sets are becoming commonplace in many application domains, especially in the area of decision-making. Current state-of-the-art in geospatial systems either lack the...
We consider the question of why modern machine learning methods like support vector machines outperform earlier nonparametric techniques like kNN. Our approach investigates the lo...
This paper presents a novel strategy improvement algorithm for parity and payoff games, which is guaranteed to select, in each improvement step, an optimal combination of local str...
There are many problems to realize camera-based character recognition. One of the problems is that characters in scenes are often distorted by geometric transformations such as af...
Gait recognition is an effective approach for human identification at a distance. During the last decade, the theory of hidden Markov models (HMMs) has been used successfully in th...
