The analysis of large movement datasets is a challenging task, because of their size and spatial complexity. This paper presents an interactive geovisual analytics approach named Hybrid Spatio-Temporal Filtering that integrates filtering of multiple movement characteristics, geovisual representations of the data, and multiple coordinated views to enable analysts to focus on movement patterns th...

In conventional networks, correlating path information to resource utilisation on the granularity of packets is a hard problem when using policy-based traffic handling schemes. We introduce a new approach termed ‘intrinsic monitoring’ which relies on the use of IPv6 extension headers in combination with formal behaviour models to gather resource information along a path. This allows a network m...

This paper studies labeled sample compression for multi-label concept classes. For a specific extension of the notion of VC-dimension to multi-label classes, we prove that every maximum multilabel class of dimension d has a sample compression scheme in which every sample is compressed to a subset of size at most d. We further show that every multi-label class of dimension 1 has a sample compres...
