The Nature of Statistical Learning Theory

by Vladimir N. Vapnik , 1999
"... Statistical learning theory was introduced in the late 1960’s. Until the 1990’s it was a purely theoretical analysis of the problem of function estimation from a given collection of data. In the middle of the 1990’s new types of learning algorithms (called support vector machines) based on the deve ..."

On understanding types, data abstraction, and polymorphism

by Luca Cardelli, Peter Wegner - ACM COMPUTING SURVEYS , 1985
"... Our objective is to understand the notion of type in programming languages, present a model of typed, polymorphic programming languages that reflects recent research in type theory, and examine the relevance of recent research to the design of practical programming languages. Object-oriented languag ..."

Tabu Search -- Part I

by Fred Glover , 1989
"... This paper presents the fundamental principles underlying tabu search as a strategy for combinatorial optimization problems. Tabu search has achieved impressive practical successes in applications ranging from scheduling and computer channel balancing to cluster analysis and space planning, and more ..."

Similarity search in high dimensions via hashing

by Aristides Gionis, Piotr Indyk, Rajeev Motwani , 1999
"... The nearest- or near-neighbor query problems arise in a large variety of database applications, usually in the context of similarity searching. Of late, there has been increasing interest in building search/index structures for performing similarity search over high-dimensional data, e.g., image dat ..."

Suffix arrays: A new method for on-line string searches

by Udi Manber, Gene Myers , 1991
"... A new and conceptually simple data structure, called a suffix array, for on-line string searches is intro-duced in this paper. Constructing and querying suffix arrays is reduced to a sort and search paradigm that employs novel algorithms. The main advantage of suffix arrays over suffix trees is that ..."

The anatomy of a large-scale hypertextual web search engine.

by Sergey Brin , Lawrence Page - Comput. Netw. ISDN Syst., , 1998
"... Abstract In this paper, we present Google, a prototype of a large-scale search engine which makes heavy use of the structure present in hypertext. Google is designed to crawl and index the Web efficiently and produce much more satisfying search results than existing systems. The prototype with a fu ..."

an in-depth description of our large-scale web search engine --the first such detailed public description we know of to date. Apart from the problems of scaling traditional search techniques to data of this magnitude, there are new technical challenges involved with using the additional information

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,

by ] Richard Hackman , Grec R Oldham , 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

of changes that have been completed. For these reasons, the major value of socio-technical systems theory appears to be its considerable usefulness as a way of thinking about work systems and their redesign. In its present form, it has only limited use in generating new understanding through quantitative

From Data Mining to Knowledge Discovery in Databases.

by Usama Fayyad , Gregory Piatetsky-Shapiro , Padhraic Smyth - AI Magazine, , 1996
"... ■ Data mining and knowledge discovery in databases have been attracting a significant amount of research, industry, and media attention of late. What is all the excitement about? This article provides an overview of this emerging field, clarifying how data mining and knowledge discovery in database ..."

low-level data (which are typically too voluminous to understand and digest easily) into other forms that might be more compact (for example, a short report), more abstract (for example, a descriptive approximation or model of the process that generated the data), or more useful (for example, a

A Linear-Time Heuristic for Improving Network Partitions

by C. M. Fiduccia, et al. , 1982
"... An iterative mincut heuristic for partitioning networks is presented whose worst case computation time, per pass, grows linearly with the size of the network. In practice, only a very small number of passes are typically needed, leading to a fast approximation algorithm for mincut partitioning. To d ..."

. To deal with cells of various sizes, the algorithm progresses by moving one cell at a time between the blocks of the partition while maintaining a desired balance based on the size of the blocks rather than the number of cells per block. Efficient data structures are used to avoid unnecessary searching

Network Applications of Bloom Filters: A Survey

by Andrei Broder, Michael Mitzenmacher - INTERNET MATHEMATICS , 2002
"... A Bloomfilter is a simple space-efficient randomized data structure for representing a set in order to support membership queries. Bloom filters allow false positives but the space savings often outweigh this drawback when the probability of an error is controlled. Bloom filters have been used in ..."
