Automatic predicate abstraction of C programs

by Thomas Ball , Rupak Majumdar, Todd Millstein, Sriram K. Rajamani - IN PROC. ACM PLDI , 2001
"... Model checking has been widely successful in validating and debugging designs in the hardware and protocol domains. However, state-space explosion limits the applicability of model checking tools, so model checkers typically operate on abstractions of systems. Recently, there has been significant in ..."

of programs written in an industrial programming language such as C, and its implementation in a tool-- C2bp. The C2bp tool is part of the SLAM toolkit, which uses a combination of predicate abstraction, model checking, symbolic reasoning, and iterative refinement to statically check temporal safety

Numerical integration of the Cartesian equations of motion of a system with constraints: molecular dynamics of n-alkanes

by Jean-paul Ryckaert, Giovanni Ciccotti, Herman J. C. Berendsen - J. Comput. Phys , 1977
"... A numerical algorithm integrating the 3N Cartesian equations of motion of a system of N points subject to holonomic constraints is formulated. The relations of constraint remain perfectly fulfilled at each step of the trajectory despite the approximate character of numerical integration. The method ..."

(MD), which has been widely used in the past for studying simple liquids and solids, has more recently been applied to molecular systems with internal degrees of freedom such as N, [l], H,O [2] and even C,H,, [3]. In applying the MD method three problems arise: (a) the choice of a suitable mechanical

A Study of Cross-Validation and Bootstrap for Accuracy Estimation and Model Selection

by Ron Kohavi - INTERNATIONAL JOINT CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE , 1995
"... We review accuracy estimation methods and compare the two most common methods: cross-validation and bootstrap. Recent experimental results on artificial data and theoretical results in restricted settings have shown that for selecting a good classifier from a set of classifiers (model selection), te ..."

), ten-fold cross-validation may be better than the more expensive leaveone-out cross-validation. We report on a largescale experiment -- over half a million runs of C4.5 and a Naive-Bayes algorithm -- to estimate the effects of different parameters on these algorithms on real-world datasets. For cross

Ptolemy: A Framework for Simulating and Prototyping Heterogeneous Systems

by Joseph Buck, Soonhoi Ha, Edward A. Lee, David G. Messerschmitt , 1992
"... Ptolemy is an environment for simulation and prototyping of heterogeneous systems. It uses modern object-oriented software technology (C++) to model each subsystem in a natural and efficient manner, and to integrate these subsystems into a whole. Ptolemy encompasses practically all aspects of design ..."

A review of image denoising algorithms, with a new one

by A. Buades, B. Coll, J. M. Morel - SIMUL , 2005
"... The search for efficient image denoising methods is still a valid challenge at the crossing of functional analysis and statistics. In spite of the sophistication of the recently proposed methods, most algorithms have not yet attained a desirable level of applicability. All show an outstanding perf ..."

The most powerful evaluation method seems, however, to be the visualization of the method noise on natural images. The more this method noise looks like a real

A Bayesian computer vision system for modeling human interactions

by Nuria M. Oliver, Barbara Rosario, Alex P. Pentland - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2000
"... We describe a real-time computer vision and machine learning system for modeling and recognizing human behaviors in a visual surveillance task [1]. The system is particularly concerned with detecting when interactions between people occur and classifying the type of interaction. Examples of interes ..."

different state-based learning architectures, namely, HMMs and CHMMs for modeling behaviors and interactions. The CHMM model is shown to work much more efficiently and accurately. Finally, to deal with the problem of limited training data, a synthetic ªAlife-styleº training system is used to develop

Imagenet: A large-scale hierarchical image database

by Jia Deng, Wei Dong, Richard Socher, Li-jia Li, Kai Li, Li Fei-fei - In CVPR , 2009
"... The explosion of image data on the Internet has the potential to foster more sophisticated and robust models and algorithms to index, retrieve, organize and interact with images and multimedia data. But exactly how such data can be harnessed and organized remains a critical problem. We introduce her ..."

Tandem repeats finder: a program to analyze DNA sequences

by Gary Benson , 1999
"... A tandem repeat in DNA is two or more contiguous, approximate copies of a pattern of nucleotides. Tandem repeats have been shown to cause human disease, may play a variety of regulatory and evolutionary roles and are important laboratory and analytic tools. Extensive knowledge about pattern size, co ..."

Many of these environments (e.g., indoor environments or habitats) can be harsh for wireless communication. From a networking perspective, the most basic aspect of wireless communication is the packet delivery ..."
