Abstract Representations and Confirmation

by Christopher Pincock , 2009
"... Many philosophers would concede that mathematics contributes to the abstractness of some of our most successful scientific representations. Still, it is hard to know what this abstractness really comes to or how to make a link between abstractness and success. I start by explaining how mathe-matic ..."

Inductive learning algorithms and representations for text categorization,”

by Susan Dumais , John Platt , Mehran Sahami , David Heckerman - in Proceedings of the International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management, , 1998
"... ABSTRACT Text categorization -the assignment of natural language texts to one or more predefined categories based on their content -is an important component in many information organization and management tasks. We compare the effectiveness of five different automatic learning algorithms for text ..."

A theory for multiresolution signal decomposition : the wavelet representation

by G. Mallat - IEEE Transaction on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 1989
"... Abstract-Multiresolution representations are very effective for analyzing the information content of images. We study the properties of the operator which approximates a signal at a given resolution. We show that the difference of information between the approximation of a signal at the resolutions ..."

An Abstract Representation of Variational Graphs

by Martin Erwig, Eric Walkingshaw, Sheng Chen , 2013
"... In the context of software product lines, there is often a need to represent graphs containing variability. For example, extending traditional modeling techniques or program analyses to variational software requires a corresponding notion of variational graphs. In this paper, we introduce a general ..."

model of variational graphs and a theoretical framework for discussing variational graph algorithms. Specifically, we present an abstract syntax based on tagging for succinctly representing variational graphs and other data types relevant to variational graph algorithms, such as variational sets

Space-time Interest Points

by Ivan Laptev, Tony Lindeberg - IN ICCV , 2003
"... Local image features or interest points provide compact and abstract representations of patterns in an image. In this paper, we propose to extend the notion of spatial interest points into the spatio-temporal domain and show how the resulting features often reflect interesting events that can be use ..."

Testing Equivalences for Processes

by R. De Nicola, M. C. B. Hennessy - Theoretical Computer Science , 1984
"... Abstract. Given a set of processes and a set of tests on these processes we show how to define in a natural way three different eyuitalences on processes. ThesP equivalences are applied to a particular language CCS. We give associated complete proof systems and fully abstract models. These models ha ..."

Face description with local binary patterns: Application to face recognition

by Abdenour Hadid, Senior Member - IEEE Trans. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 2006
"... Abstract—This paper presents a novel and efficient facial image representation based on local binary pattern (LBP) texture features. The face image is divided into several regions from which the LBP feature distributions are extracted and concatenated into an enhanced feature vector to be used as a ..."

Non-negative matrix factorization with sparseness constraints,”

by Patrik O Hoyer , Patrik Hoyer@helsinki , Fi - Journal of Machine Learning Research, , 2004
"... Abstract Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a recently developed technique for finding parts-based, linear representations of non-negative data. Although it has successfully been applied in several applications, it does not always result in parts-based representations. In this paper, we sho ..."

Principled design of the modern web architecture

by Roy T. Fielding, Richard N. Taylor - ACM Trans. Internet Techn
"... The World Wide Web has succeeded in large part because its software architecture has been designed to meet the needs of an Internet-scale distributed hypermedia system. The modern Web architecture emphasizes scalability of component interactions, generality of interfaces, independent deployment of c ..."

of components, and intermediary components to reduce interaction latency, enforce security, and encapsulate legacy systems. In this paper, we introduce the Representational State Transfer (REST) architectural style, developed as an abstract model of the Web architecture to guide our redesign and definition

A volumetric method for building complex models from range images,”

by Brian Curless , Marc Levoy - in Proceedings of the 23rd annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques. ACM, , 1996
"... Abstract A number of techniques have been developed for reconstructing surfaces by integrating groups of aligned range images. A desirable set of properties for such algorithms includes: incremental updating, representation of directional uncertainty, the ability to fill gaps in the reconstruction, ..."
