Design of capacity-approaching irregular low-density parity-check codes
- IEEE TRANS. INFORM. THEORY
, 2001
"... We design low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes that perform at rates extremely close to the Shannon capacity. The codes are built from highly irregular bipartite graphs with carefully chosen degree patterns on both sides. Our theoretical analysis of the codes is based on [1]. Assuming that the unde ..."

Singularity Detection And Processing With Wavelets
- IEEE Transactions on Information Theory
, 1992
"... Most of a signal information is often found in irregular structures and transient phenomena. We review the mathematical characterization of singularities with Lipschitz exponents. The main theorems that estimate local Lipschitz exponents of functions, from the evolution across scales of their wavele ..."

On the Origin of Irregular Structure in Saturn’s Rings
- The Astronomical Journal
, 2003
"... We suggest that the irregular structure in Saturn’s B ring arises from the formation of shear-free ring-particle assemblies of up to ∼ 100 km in radial extent. The characteristic scale of the irregular structure is set by the competition between tidal forces and the yield stress of these assemblies; ..."

The Lorel Query Language for Semistructured Data
- International Journal on Digital Libraries
, 1997
"... We present the Lorel language, designed for querying semistructured data. Semistructured data is becoming more and more prevalent, e.g., in structured documents such as HTML and when performing simple integration of data from multiple sources. Traditional data models and query languages are inapprop ..."

are inappropriate, since semistructured data often is irregular, some data is missing, similar concepts are represented using different types, heterogeneous sets are present, or object structure is not fully known. Lorel is a user-friendly language in the SQL/OQL style for querying such data effectively. For wide
Actions as space-time shapes
- IN ICCV
, 2005
"... Human action in video sequences can be seen as silhouettes of a moving torso and protruding limbs undergoing articulated motion. We regard human actions as three-dimensional shapes induced by the silhouettes in the space-time volume. We adopt a recent approach [14] for analyzing 2D shapes and genera ..."

and generalize it to deal with volumetric space-time action shapes. Our method utilizes properties of the solution to the Poisson equation to extract space-time features such as local space-time saliency, action dynamics, shape structure and orientation. We show that these features are useful for action
Task Parallel Skeletons for Irregularly Structured Problems

The integration of a task parallel skeleton into a functional programming language is presented. Task parallel skeletons, as other algorithmic skeletons, represent general parallelization patterns. They are introduced into otherwise sequential languages to enable the development of parallel applications. Into functional programming languages, they naturally are integrated as higher-order functional forms.
Parallel Search Algorithm for the Detection of Irregular Structures
"... Introduction The interest in this type of search algorithms originates from the so-called Cluster Algorithm, a non-local update procedure in Monte Carlo simulations of spin models [1,2]. The goal of Monte Carlo simulations of spin models is to generate configurations of spins, typical of statistica ..."

In the cluster algorithm, different points of a mesh are connected with one another according to a certain rule, and the most CPU-time consuming task is to find the connectivity structure, i.e. to determine which

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Michael Nechyba for his wise and pa-tient guidance of my research for this dissertation. As my former advisor, Dr. Nechyba has been directing but on no account confining my interests. I especially appreciate his readi-ness and expertise to help me solve numerous implementation issues. Most importantly, I am thankful for the friendship that we have developed collaborating on this work. Also, I thank my current advisor Dr. Dapeng Wu for putting extra effort to help me finalize my PhD studies. I am grateful for his invaluable pieces of advise in choosing my future research goals, as well as for practical concrete steps that he undertook to help me find a job. My thanks also go to Dr. Jian Li, who helped me a lot in the transition period in which I was supposed to change my advisor. Her research group provided for a stimulating environment for me to endeavor investigating areas that are beyond the work presented in this dissertation. Also, I thank Dr. Antonio Arroyo, whose brilliant lectures on machine intelligence have inspired me to do research in the field of machine learning. As the director of the Machine Intelligence Lab (MIL), Dr. Arroyo has created a warm, friendly, and hard working atmosphere among the “MIL-ers. ” Thanks to him, I have decided to join the MIL, which has proved on numerous occasions to be the right decision. I thank all the members of the MIL for their friendship and support. I thank Dr. Takeo Kanade and Dr. Andrew Kurdila for sharing their research efforts on the micro air vehicle (MAV) project with me. The multidisciplinary environment of this project in which I had a chance to collaborate with various researchers with diverse educational backgrounds was a great experience for me. ii
