Compressed bitmap indexes are used in systems such as Git or Oracle to accelerate queries.
DATABASES
The results obtained for $n=3$ show that, for any given $3^{\text{rd}}$-degree polynomial curve, the MINVO basis is able to obtain an enclosing simplex whose volume is $2. 36$ and $254. 9$ times smaller than the ones obtained by the Bernstein and B-Spline bases, respectively.
COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY GRAPHICS ROBOTICS
This paper introduces Ferrite, a shallow embedding of session types in Rust.
PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES
In this paper, we propose multi-band MelGAN, a much faster waveform generation model targeting to high-quality text-to-speech.
SOUND AUDIO AND SPEECH PROCESSING
This report describes the aggregation and anonymization process applied to the initial version of COVID-19 Search Trends symptoms dataset (published at https://goo. gle/covid19symptomdataset on September 2, 2020), a publicly available dataset that shows aggregated, anonymized trends in Google searches for symptoms (and some related topics).
CRYPTOGRAPHY AND SECURITY
A developer can use MediaPipe to build prototypes by combining existing perception components, to advance them to polished cross-platform applications and measure system performance and resource consumption on target platforms.
DISTRIBUTED, PARALLEL, AND CLUSTER COMPUTING
We conduct extensive experiments to compare DataPrep. EDA with Pandas-profiling, the state-of-the-art EDA system in Python.
DATABASES
The sliding window model of computation captures scenarios in which data is arriving continuously, but only the latest $w$ elements should be used for analysis.
DATA STRUCTURES AND ALGORITHMS
In this paper, we present a new BFT consensus mechanism which enables thousands of nodes to participate in the consensus process, and supports very high transaction throughput.
DISTRIBUTED, PARALLEL, AND CLUSTER COMPUTING
Robotic manipulation can be formulated as inducing a sequence of spatial displacements: where the space being moved can encompass an object, part of an object, or end effector.
