The Algorithmics of Bisimilarity

Multimedia Retrieval Algorithmics

After text retrieval, the next waves in web searching and multimedia retrieval are the search for and delivery of images, music, video, and 3D scenes. Not only the perceptual and cognitive aspects, but also many of the algorithmic and performance aspects are still badly understood. One relevant issue is the design of dissimilarity measures (distance functions) that have desired properties. Anot...

A Guide to Experimental Algorithmics

Lecture I OUTLINE OF ALGORITHMICS

This first chapter is mostly informal. The rest of this book has no dependency on this chapter, save the definitions in §7 concerning asymptotic notations. Hence a light reading may be sufficient. We recommend re-reading this chapter after finishing the rest of the book, when many of the remarks here may take on more concrete meaning. An appendix collects useful mathematical concepts that are u...
