A Tree-Based Context Model for Object Recognition
(2010-10-29)
There has been a growing interest in exploiting contextual information in addition to local features to detect and localize multiple object categories in an image. A context model can rule out some unlikely combinations ...
SEEC: A Framework for Self-aware Computing
(2010-10-13)
As the complexity of computing systems increases, application programmers must be experts in their application domain and have the systems knowledge required to address the problems that arise from parallelism, power, ...
A File Location, Replication, and Distribution System for Network Information to Aid Network Management
(2010-09-22)
This thesis demonstrates and evaluates the design, architecture, and implementation of a file location, replication, and distribution system built with the objective of managing information in an Internet network. The ...
Bayesian perceptual inference in linear Gaussian models
(2010-09-21)
The aim of this paper is to provide perceptual scientists with a quantitative framework for modeling a variety of common perceptual behaviors, and to unify various perceptual inference tasks by exposing their common ...
Learning Solutions of Similar Linear Programming Problems using Boosting Trees
(2010-09-18)
In many optimization problems, similar linear programming (LP) problems occur in the nodes of the branch and bound trees that are used to solve integer (mixed or pure, deterministic or stochastic) programming problems. ...
Practical Color-Based Motion Capture
(2010-09-10)
Motion capture systems have been widely used for high quality content creation and virtual reality but are rarely used in consumer applications due to their price and setup cost. In this paper, we propose a motion capture ...
Audit Trails in the Aeolus Distributed Security Platform
(2010-09-29)
This thesis provides a complete design and implementation of audit trail collection and storage for Aeolus, a distributed security platform based on information flow control. An information flow control system regulates ...
Conservative-Bayesian Mechanisms
(2010-09-08)
We put forward a new class of mechanisms. In this extended abstract, we exemplify our approach only for single-good auctions in what we call a conservative-Bayesian setting. (Essentially, no common-knowledge about the ...
UCM/MIT Indications, Referring Expressions, and Coreference Corpus (UMIREC corpus) v1.1
(2010-05-12)
The corpus comprises 62 files in "Story Workbench" annotation format: 30 folktales in English from a variety of sources, and 32 Wall Street Journal articles selected to coincide with articles found in the Penn Treebank. ...
