The cascade-correlation learning architecture

by Scott E. Fahlman, Christian Lebiere - Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 2 , 1990
"... Cascade-Correlation is a new architecture and supervised learning algorithm for artificial neural networks. Instead of just adjusting the weights in a network of fixed topology, Cascade-Correlation begins with a minimal network, then automatically trains and adds new hidden units one by one, creatin ..."

Architectural features and urban propagation

by Antonis G. Dimitriou, Student Member, George D. Sergiadis - IEEE Trans. Antennas Propagat , 2006
"... Abstract—Radiocoverage measurements in urban environments often unveil unexpected power distribution patterns. Architectural features seem to be the cause of this behavior, as demonstrated in this paper. We demonstrate that the elements of a typical building facade, such as windows, exterior doors, ..."

Content-based image retrieval at the end of the early years

by Arnold W. M. Smeulders, Marcel Worring, Simone Santini, Amarnath Gupta, Ramesh Jain - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2000
"... The paper presents a review of 200 references in content-based image retrieval. The paper starts with discussing the working conditions of content-based retrieval: patterns of use, types of pictures, the role of semantics, and the sensory gap. Subsequent sections discuss computational steps for imag ..."

. Similarity of pictures and objects in pictures is reviewed for each of the feature types, in close connection to the types and means of feedback the user of the systems is capable of giving by interaction. We briefly discuss aspects of system engineering: databases, system architecture, and evaluation

A Model of Saliency-based Visual Attention for Rapid Scene Analysis

by Laurent Itti, Christof Koch, Ernst Niebur , 1998
"... A visual attention system, inspired by the behavior and the neuronal architecture of the early primate visual system, is presented. Multiscale image features are combined into a single topographical saliency map. A dynamical neural network then selects attended locations in order of decreasing salie ..."

Evolving Artificial Neural Networks

by Xin Yao , 1999
"... This paper: 1) reviews different combinations between ANN's and evolutionary algorithms (EA's), including using EA's to evolve ANN connection weights, architectures, learning rules, and input features; 2) discusses different search operators which have been used in various EA's; ..."

Understanding and Using Context

by Anind K. Dey - Personal and Ubiquitous Computing , 2001
"... Context is a poorly used source of information in our computing environments. As a result, we have an impoverished understanding of what context is and how it can be used. In this paper, we provide an operational definition of context and discuss the different ways that context can be used by contex ..."

by context-aware applications. We also present the Context Toolkit, an architecture that supports the building of these context-aware applications. We discuss the features and abstractions in the toolkit that make the task of building applications easier. Finally, we introduce a new abstraction, a situation

Cyberguide: A Mobile Context-Aware Tour Guide

by Gregory D. Abowd, Christopher G. Atkeson, Jason Hong, Sue Long, Rob Kooper, Mike Pinkerton , 1996
"... Future computing environments will free the user from the constraints of the desktop. Applications for a mobile environment should take advantage of contextual information, suach as position, to offer greater services to the user. In his paper, we present the Cyberguide project, in which we are buil ..."

are building prototypes of a mobile context-aware tour guide. Knowledge of the user's current location, as well as a history of past locations, are used to provide more of the kind of services that we come to expect from a real tour guide. We describe the architecture and features of a variety

UCSF Chimera—a visualization system for exploratory research and analysis

by Eric F. Pettersen, Thomas D. Goddard, Conrad C. Huang, Gregory S. Couch, Daniel M. Greenblatt, Elaine C. Meng, Thomas E. Ferrin - J. Comput. Chem , 2004
"... Abstract: The design, implementation, and capabilities of an extensible visualization system, UCSF Chimera, are discussed. Chimera is segmented into a core that provides basic services and visualization, and extensions that provide most higher level functionality. This architecture ensures that the ..."

A high-performance, portable implementation of the MPI message passing interface standard

by Ewing Lusk, Nathan Doss, Anthony Skjellum - Parallel Computing , 1996
"... MPI (Message Passing Interface) is a specification for a standard library for message passing that was defined by the MPI Forum, a broadly based group of parallel computer vendors, library writers, and applications specialists. Multiple implementations of MPI have been developed. In this paper, we d ..."
Abstract - Cited by 890 (65 self) - Add to MetaCart
describe MPICH, unique among existing implementations in its design goal of combining portability with high performance. We document its portability and performance and describe the architecture by which these features are simultaneously achieved. We also discuss the set of tools that accompany the free

The spandrels of San Marco and the Panglossian paradigm: a critique of the adaptationist programme.

by S J Gould , R C Lewontin - Proceedings of the Royal Society of London Series B, Biological Sciences , 1979
"... An adaptationist programme has dominated evolutionary thought in England and the United States during the past 40 years. It is based on faith in the power of natural selection as an optimizing agent. It proceeds by breaking an organism into unitary 'traits' and proposing an adaptive story ..."
