Abstract NAND flash-based SSDs suffer from limited lifetime due to the fact that NAND flash can only be programmed or erased for limited times. Among various approaches to address this problem, we propose to reduce the number of writes to the flash via exploiting the content locality between the write data and its corresponding old version in the flash. This content locality means, the new ...

1 Abstract Minecraft has been the focus of much AI research in past years. Most recently, interest has risen in procedural generation of settlements in Minecraft, largely due to a annual competition established in 2018 called the Generative Design in Minecraft Competition. Inspired by this recent research, we aim to develop a set of algorithms that are capable of building a realistic ...

1 Introduction Most collision detection algorithms, such as OBBTree [Gottschalk96], sphere hier-archies [Hubbard96] and BV-trees [Klosowski97], try to minimize the number of primitive-primitive intersections that have to be computed. Still, a fast and reliable method for computing the primitive-primitive intersection is desired. Since render-ing hardware is often targeted for triangles, the ...

Abstract—Projective analysis is an important solution in three-dimensional (3D) shape retrieval, since human visual perceptions of 3D shapes rely on various 2D observations from different viewpoints. Although multiple informative and discriminative views are utilized, most projection-based retrieval systems suffer from heavy computational cost, and thus cannot satisfy the basic requirement ...

ABSTRACT Serendipity recommendation has attracted more and more atten-tion in recent years; it is committed to providing recommendations which could not only cater to users’ demands but also broaden their horizons. However, existing approaches usually measure user-item relevance with a scalar instead of a vector, ignoring user preference direction, which increases the risk of unrelated ...

In laboratory studies, praising children’s effort encourages them to adopt incremental motivational frame-works—they believe ability is malleable, attribute success to hard work, enjoy challenges, and generate strate-gies for improvement. In contrast, praising children’s inherent abilities encourages them to adopt fixed-ability frameworks. Does the praise parents spontaneously give ...

Abstract—Edge caching is a promising approach to reduce duplicate content transmission in Internet-of-Vehicles (IoVs). Sev-eral Reinforcement Learning (RL) based edge caching methods have been proposed to improve the resource utilization and reduce the backhaul trafic load. However, they only obtain the local sub-optimal solution, as they neglect the influence from environments by other ...

Abstract. Outlier detection has recently become an important problem in many industrial and financial applications. This problem is further complicated by the fact that in many cases, outliers have to be detected from data streams that arrive at an enormous pace. In this paper, an incremental LOF (Local Outlier Factor) algorithm, appropriate for detecting outliers in data streams, is proposed ...

Does increased security provide comfort to paranoid people? Or does security provide some very basic protections that we are naive to believe that we don't need? During this time when the Internet provides essential communication between literally billions of people and is used as a tool for commerce, social interaction, and the exchange of an increasing amount of personal information ...
