Training Set Compression by Incremental Clustering 56-64
Compression of training sets is a technique for reducing training set size without degrading classification accuracy. By reducing the size of a training set, training will be more efficient in addition to saving storage space.

Applications
Convergence of the Mean Shift Using the Infinity Norm in Image Segmentation 32-42
 In this work a comparison between two algorithms for image segmentation via the mean shift is carried out. These algorithms apply recursively the mean shift filtering by using the euclidean and infinity norms in order to define pixel neighborhoods.

The Analysis of Software Complexity Using Stochastic Metric Selection 19-31
The automated prediction of qualitative attributes such as software complexity is a desirable software engineering goal. A potential technique is to use software metrics as quantitative predictors for these kinds of attributes.

Power Scaling of Chemiresistive Sensor Array Data for Odor Classification 65-74
Steady state response of chemiresistive sensors like metal oxide and conducting polymer composite (CPC) exhibit a power law dependency on exposed analyte concentration/vapor pressure.
