The world tried to kill Andy off but he had to stay alive to to talk about what happened with databases in 2025.

Inspired by the natural curiosity he saw in animals, MLD Assistant Professor Aran Nayebi and his CMU colleagues created a ...

Randy Pausch is a Professor of Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, and Design at Carnegie Mellon, where he was the co-founder of Carnegie Mellon's Entertainment Technology Center (ETC). He ...

Take our own bodies. I believe they are composed of myriads and myriads of infinitesimally small individuals, each in itself a unit of life, and that these units work in squads or swarms, as I prefer ...

A commonly observed failure mode of Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) is fitting incorrect geometries when given an insufficient number of input views. One potential reason is that standard volumetric ...

In the field of evolutionary computation, it is common to compare different algorithms using a large test set, especially when the test involves function optimization [GW93]. However, the ...

A technical introduction to the fundamentals of programming with an emphasis on producing clear, robust, and reasonably efficient code using top-down design, informal analysis, and effective testing ...

Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or ...

My name is Yige Hong, I'm a sixth-year Ph.D. student at Computer Science Department of Carnegie Mellon University. I'm very fortunate to be advised by Professor Weina Wang . I work on the performance ...

The NEAT method of evolving artificial neural networks combines the usual search for appropriate network weights with complexification of the network structure. This approach is highly effective, as ...

I wrote this article in 1994 in response to a request posted to a discussion group. Since then, I've seen it in various places around the Net. This version is essentially the same as the earlier, but ...

Developable surfaces are those that can be made by smoothly bending flat pieces without stretching or shearing. We introduce a definition of developability for triangle meshes which exactly captures ...
