Predictive random graph ranking on the web
(2006)
The incomplete information about the Web structure causes inaccurate results of various ranking algorithms. In this paper, we propose a solution to this problem by formulating a new framework called, Predictive Random Graph ...
A point-distribution index and its application to sensor-grouping in wireless sensor networks
(ACM, 2006)
We propose [i], a novel index for evaluation of point-distribution. [i] is the minimum distance etween each pair of points normalized by the average distance between each pair of points. We find that a set of points that ...
Learning with Consistency between Inductive Functions and Kernels

Predictive ranking: a novel page ranking approach by estimating the web structure
(2005)
PageRank (PR) is one of the most popular ways to rank web pages. However, as the Web continues to grow in volume, it is becoming more and more difficult to crawl all the available pages. As a result, the page ranks computed ...
Sorec: social recommendation using probabilistic matrix factorization
(ACM, 2008)
Data sparsity, scalability and prediction quality have been recognized as the three most crucial challenges that every collaborative filtering algorithm or recommender system confronts. Many existing approaches to recommender ...
Finite-amplitude Love waves in a pre-stressed neo-Hookean material
(2008)
In the context of the non-linear elasticity theory we consider a model for compressible solids called compressible neoHookean
material . We show how (exact) finite-amplitude inhomogeneous plane wave solutions and ...
Waves and vibrations in a solid of second grade
(World Scientific, 2006)
We study the viscoelastic second grade solid, for which the constitutive equation
consists in the sum of a purely elastic part and a viscoelastic part; this latter part
is specified by two microstructural coefficients ...
A note about waves in dissipative and dispersive solids
(World Scientific, 2008)
We study shear waves propagating in a special viscoelastic model proposed first by
Fosdick and Yu in 1996. We deduce an asymptotic approximation which reduces
the full balance equations to a system of evolution equations ...
Partition functions and chiral algebras.
(American Mathematical Society, 2007-05)
We discuss recent work of the authors concerning correlation functions and partition functions for free bosons/fermions and the b-c or ghost system. We compare and contrast the nature of the 1-point functions at genus 1, ...
Experimental characterisation of neural tissue at collision speeds
(International Research Council on Biomechanics of Injury (IRCOBI), 2012)
Mechanical characterisation of brain tissue at high loading velocities is particularly important for modelling Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). During severe impact conditions, brain tissue experiences a mixture of compression, ...
