Given an object model and a black-box measure of similarity between the model and candidate targets, we consider visual object tracking as a numerical optimization problem. During...
Stochastic Local Search (SLS) is quite effective for a variety of Combinatorial (Optimization) Problems (COP). However, the performance of SLS depends on several factors and getti...
In this paper we prove the so-called "Meek Conjecture". In particular, we show that if a DAG H is an independence map of another DAG G, then there exists a finite sequen...
In recent years different authors have proposed the used of random-walk-based algorithms for varying tasks in the networking community. These proposals include searching, routing...
Knowledge representations using semantic web technologies often provide information which translates to explicit term and predicate taxonomies in relational learning. We show how t...
