. This measure is non-parametric and can thus handle a wide range of dynamic events. Having an event-based distance measure between sequences, we use it for a variety of tasks, including: (i) event-based search and indexing into long video sequences (for “intelligent fast forward”), (ii) temporal segmentation

changes. Below, we investigate the determinants of credit spread changes. From a contingent-claims, or noarbitrage standpoint, credit spreads obtain for two fundamental reasons: 1) there is a risk of default, and 2) in the event of default, the bondholder receives only a portion of the promised payments

Content-based subscription systems are an emerging alternative to traditional publish-subscribe systems, because they permit more flexible subscriptions along multiple dimensions. In these systems, each subscription is a predicate which may test arbitrary attributes within an event. However

with its specific event formalism that supports event modification), and a causal engine as an Event Modification System, which selects co-occurring events on a rule-based manner. A search process, evaluates alternative consequences using semantic and spatiocontiguity information, such as comparison

. The investigation includes the preservation of the system, the search for digital evidence, and the reconstruction of digital events. The focus of the investigation is on the reconstruction of events using evidence so that hypotheses can be developed and tested. This paper also includes definitions and descriptions

This paper presents a method for making metadata conforming to heterogeneous schemas semantically interoperable. The idea is to make the knowledge embedded in the schema structures interoperable and explicit by transforming the schemas into a shared, event-based representation of knowledge about

Abstract: Searching for people on the Internet is one of the most frequent search activities. In this paper, wepresent EvenPers, asystem for the event-based exploration of persons and person similarities. We address challenges such as cross-document person name normalization and present anovel

Three experiments investigated whether event-based prospective memory was affected by the associative fan of the cues to be detected. The associative fan was operationally defined as the number of associates paired with event-based cues in a paired associate learning phase. Subsequent to the paired

The idea of the European project GLOCAL is to use events as the central concept for search, organization and combination of multimedia content from various sources. For this purpose methods for event detection and event matching as well as media analysis are developed. Considered events range from

to support the detection of historical events in textual data whilst the Agora project focusses on exploring the modelling aspects of historical events and employing the combined results in an event-driven browse and search approach. Furthermore, the historical events are used as a flexible model to identify
