The Effectiveness of Application Permissions

by Adrienne Porter Felt, Kate Greenwood, David Wagner - In Proc. of the USENIX Conference on Web Application Development , 2011
"... Traditional user-based permission systems assign the user’s full privileges to all applications. Modern platforms are transitioning to a new model, in which each application has a different set of permissions based on its requirements. Application permissions offer several advantages over traditiona ..."

Cumulated Gain-based Evaluation of IR Techniques

by Kalervo Järvelin, Jaana Kekäläinen - ACM Transactions on Information Systems , 2002
"... Modem large retrieval environments tend to overwhelm their users by their large output. Since all documents are not of equal relevance to their users, highly relevant documents should be identified and ranked first for presentation to the users. In order to develop IR techniques to this direction, i ..."
Abstract - Cited by 694 (3 self) - Add to MetaCart
, it is necessary to develop evaluation approaches and methods that credit IR methods for their ability to retrieve highly relevant documents. This can be done by extending traditional evaluation methods, i.e., recall and precision based on binary relevance assessments, to graded relevance assessments

Fab: Content-based, collaborative recommendation

by Marko Balabanovic, Yoav Shoham - Communications of the ACM , 1997
"... Fab is a recommendation system designed to help users sift through the enormous amount of information available in the World Wide Web. Operational since Dec. 1994, this system combines the content-based and collaborative methods of recommendation in a way that exploits the advantages of the two appr ..."

Automatic Musical Genre Classification Of Audio Signals

by George Tzanetakis, Georg Essl, Perry Cook - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SPEECH AND AUDIO PROCESSING , 2002
"... ... describe music. They are commonly used to structure the increasing amounts of music available in digital form on the Web and are important for music information retrieval. Genre categorization for audio has traditionally been performed manually. A particular musical genre is characterized by sta ..."
Abstract - Cited by 829 (35 self) - Add to MetaCart
set of features for representing rhythmic structure and strength is proposed. The performance of those feature sets has been evaluated by training statistical pattern recognition classifiers using real world audio collections. Based on the automatic hierarchical genre classification two graphical user

QSplat: A Multiresolution Point Rendering System for Large Meshes

by Szymon Rusinkiewicz, Marc Levoy , 2000
"... Advances in 3D scanning technologies have enabled the practical creation of meshes with hundreds of millions of polygons. Traditional algorithms for display, simplification, and progressive transmission of meshes are impractical for data sets of this size. We describe a system for representing and p ..."

Bank Runs, Deposit Insurance, and Liquidity

by Douglas W. Diamond, Philip H. Dybvig - Journal of Political Economy , 2000
"... This article develops a model which shows that bank deposit contracts can provide allocations superior to those of exchange markets, offering an explanation of how banks subject to runs can attract deposits. Investors face privately observed risks which lead to a demand for liquidity. Traditional ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1245 (15 self) - Add to MetaCart
. Traditional demand deposit contracts which provide liquidity have multiple equilibria, one of which is a bank run. Bank runs in the model cause real economic damage, rather than simply reflecting other problems. Contracts which can prevent runs are studied, and the analysis shows

Iterative (turbo) soft interference cancellation and decoding for coded CDMA

by Xiaodong Wang, H. Vincent Poor - IEEE Trans. Commun , 1999
"... Abstract — The presence of both multiple-access interference (MAI) and intersymbol interference (ISI) constitutes a major impediment to reliable communications in multipath code-division multiple-access (CDMA) channels. In this paper, an iterative receiver structure is proposed for decoding multiuse ..."
Abstract - Cited by 456 (18 self) - Add to MetaCart
multiuser information data in a convolutionally coded asynchronous multipath DS-CDMA system. The receiver performs two successive softoutput decisions, achieved by a soft-input soft-output (SISO) multiuser detector and a bank of single-user SISO channel decoders, through an iterative process. At each

Scaling Personalized Web Search

by Glen Jeh, Jennifer Widom - In Proceedings of the Twelfth International World Wide Web Conference , 2002
"... Recent web search techniques augment traditional text matching with a global notion of "importance" based on the linkage structure of the web, such as in Google's PageRank algorithm. For more refined searches, this global notion of importance can be specialized to create personalized ..."

I Tube, You Tube, Everybody Tubes: Analyzing the World’s Largest User Generated Content Video System

by Meeyoung Cha, Haewoon Kwak, Pablo Rodriguez, Yong-yeol Ahn, Sue Moon - In Proceedings of the 5th ACM/USENIX Internet Measurement Conference (IMC’07 , 2007

In particular, UGC sites are creating new viewing patterns and social interactions, empowering users to be more creative, and developing new business opportunities. To better ..."

A framework for clustering evolving data streams. In:

by Charu C Aggarwal , T J Watson , Resch Jiawei Ctr , Jianyong Han , Wang , Philip Yu , T J Watson , Resch Ctr - Proc of VLDB’03, , 2003
"... Abstract The clustering problem is a difficult problem for the data stream domain. This is because the large volumes of data arriving in a stream renders most traditional algorithms too inefficient. In recent years, a few one-pass clustering algorithms have been developed for the data stream proble ..."
