Abstract. The paper investigates modification of backpropagation algorithm, consisting of discretization of neural network weights after each training cycle. This modification, a...
Abstract. The shapes of many natural and man-made objects have curved contours. The images of such contours usually do not have sufficient distinctive features to apply conventiona...
Ensemble learning is a variational Bayesian method in which an intractable distribution is approximated by a lower-bound. Ensemble learning results in models with better generaliz...
We describe several cryptographic schemes in quadratic function fields of odd characteristic. In both the real and the imaginary representation of such a field, we present a Diffi...
We introduce a new combinatorial optimization problem, which is a generalization of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and which we call Traveling Salesman Problem of Second Orde...
