We analyze several distributed, continuous time protocols for a fair allocation of bandwidths to flows in a network (or resources to agents). Our protocols converge to an allocati...
Abstract. This work compares different metaheuristics techniques applied to an important problem in natural language: tagging. Tagging amounts to assigning to each word in a text ...
We consider the problem of fairly matching the left-hand vertices of a bipartite graph to the right-hand vertices. We refer to this problem as the optimal semimatching problem; it...

This paper proposes a chunking strategy to detect unknown words in Chinese word segmentation. First, a raw sentence is pre-segmented into a sequence of word atoms 1 using a maximum...
This paper considers the problem of interactively finding the cutting contour to extract components from a given mesh. Some existing methods support cuts of arbitrary shape but re...
