Enforced hill-climbing is an effective deterministic hillclimbing technique that deals with local optima using breadth-first search (a process called "basin flooding"). ...
A decision process in which rewards depend on history rather than merely on the current state is called a decision process with non-Markovian rewards (NMRDP). In decisiontheoretic...
The goal of assembly planning consists in generating feasible sequences to assemble a product and selecting an efficient assembly sequence from which related constraint factors su...
Estimating the selectivity of queries is a crucial problem in database systems. Virtually all database systems rely on the use of selectivity estimates to choose amongst the many ...
Quantitative steganalysis strives to estimate the change rate defined as the relative number of embedding changes introduced by steganography. In this paper, we propose two new cla...
