The Social Network Benchmark's Business Intelligence workload (SNB BI) is a comprehensive graph OLAP benchmark targeting analytical data systems capable of supporting workloads. This paper marks the finalization almost decade research in academia and industry via Linked Data Benchmark Council (LDBC). SNB BI advances state-of-the art synthetic scalable database benchmarks many aspects. Its base ...

Visual saliency prediction remains an academic challenge due to the diversity and complexity of natural scenes as well scarcity eye movement data on where people look in images. In many practical applications, digital images are inevitably subject distortions, such those caused by acquisition, editing, compression or transmission. A great deal attention has been paid predicting distortion-free ...

A numerical method for solving the H∞ synthesis problem is presented. The problem is posed as an unconstrained, nonsmooth, nonconvex minimization problem. The optimization variables consist solely of the entries of the output feedback matrix. No additional variables, such as Lyapunov variables, need to be introduced. The optimization procedure uses a line search mechanism where the descent dire...
