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 ..."

A New Backoff Algorithm for the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function

by Jing Deng, Pramod K. Varshney, Z. Haas - In Communication Networks and Distributed Systems Modeling and Simulation (CNDS ’04 , 2004
"... In the IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs), network nodes experiencing collisions on the shared channel need to backoff for a random period of time, which is uniformly selected from the Contention Window (CW ). This contention window is dynamically controlled by the Binary Exponential B ..."

Backoff (BEB) algorithm. The BEB scheme, as shown in some studies in the literature, suffers from a fairness problem and low throughput under high traffic load. In this paper, we propose a new backoff algorithm, termed the Linear/Multiplicative Increase and Linear Decrease (LMILD) backoff algorithm

Ubiquitous Computing and Communication Journal (ISSN 1992-8424) A NEW BACKOFF ALGORITHM FOR IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC PROTOCOL IN MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS

by Wail Mardini, Muneer Bani Yassein, Zainab Abutaye
"... Backoff algorithms are one class of collision resolution algorithms used in the medium access control protocol in mobile ad hoc networks. When there are different nodes competing to access a shared channel at the same time, the possibility of collision is highly probable, especially in high traffic ..."

load networks. Collision is considered as the major problem in wireless networks, so the backoff mechanism should be applied in order to decrease the collision and to achieve an efficient use of the shared channel. This paper aims to propose and evaluate a new backoff algorithm called “Dynamic Backoff

Experiments with a New Boosting Algorithm

by Yoav Freund, Robert E. Schapire , 1996
"... In an earlier paper, we introduced a new “boosting” algorithm called AdaBoost which, theoretically, can be used to significantly reduce the error of any learning algorithm that consistently generates classifiers whose performance is a little better than random guessing. We also introduced the relate ..."

A new learning algorithm for blind signal separation

by S. Amari, A. Cichocki, H. H. Yang - , 1996
"... A new on-line learning algorithm which minimizes a statistical de-pendency among outputs is derived for blind separation of mixed signals. The dependency is measured by the average mutual in-formation (MI) of the outputs. The source signals and the mixing matrix are unknown except for the number of ..."

A NEW POLYNOMIAL-TIME ALGORITHM FOR LINEAR PROGRAMMING

by N. Karmarkar - COMBINATORICA , 1984
"... We present a new polynomial-time algorithm for linear programming. In the worst case, the algorithm requires O(tf'SL) arithmetic operations on O(L) bit numbers, where n is the number of variables and L is the number of bits in the input. The running,time of this algorithm is better than the ell ..."

"... In this paper we develop new Newton and conjugate gradient algorithms on the Grassmann and Stiefel manifolds. These manifolds represent the constraints that arise in such areas as the symmetric eigenvalue problem, nonlinear eigenvalue problems, electronic structures computations, and signal proces ..."

Data Streams: Algorithms and Applications

by S. Muthukrishnan , 2005
"... In the data stream scenario, input arrives very rapidly and there is limited memory to store the input. Algorithms have to work with one or few passes over the data, space less than linear in the input size or time significantly less than the input size. In the past few years, a new theory has emerg ..."
