An increasing number of applications from finance, meteorology, science and others are producing time series as output. The analysis of the vast amount of time series is key to understand the phenomena studied, particularly in the simulation sciences, wher ...
In this work a new method for automatic image classification is proposed. It relies on a compact representation of images using sets of sparse binary features. This work first evaluates the Fast Retina Keypoint binary descriptor and proposes imp ...
In this paper, a new representation for the lightning channel base current is proposed in terms of the so-called Prony series, obtained by means of a modified time-domain variant of the well-known vector fitting technique. This method allows both to reprod ...
We consider K-Nearest Neighbor search for high dimensional data in large-scale structured Peer-to-Peer networks. We present an efficient mapping scheme based on p-stable Locality Sensitive Hashing to assign hash buckets to peers in a Chord-style overlay ne ...
Convex polyhedra are important objects in various areas of mathematics and other disciplines. A fundamental result, known as Minkowski-Weyl theorem, states that every polyhedron admits two types of representations, either as the solution set to a finite sy ...
"Symmetry is a complexity-reducing concept [...]; seek it every-where." - Alan J. Perlis Many natural and man-made objects exhibit significant symmetries or contain repeated substructures. This paper presents a new algorithm that processes geometric models ...
Artificial neural networks, electronic circuits, and gene networks are some examples of systems that can be modeled as networks, that is, as collections of interconnected nodes. In this paper we introduce the concept of terminal graph (t-graph for short), w ...
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been widely used for manifold description and dimensionality reduction. Performance of PCA is however hampered when data exhibits nonlinear feature relations. In this work, we propose a new framework for manifold lear ...
We describe an acoustic modeling approach in which all phonetic states share a common Gaussian Mixture Model structure, and the means and mixture weights vary in a subspace of the total parameter space. We call this a Subspace Gaussian Mixture Model (SGMM) ...
In this paper we consider distributed K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) search and range query processing in high dimensional data. Our approach is based on Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) which has proven very efficient in answering KNN queries in centralized set ...
