k- and t-optimality algorithms [9, 6] provide solutions to DCOPs that are optimal in regions characterized by its size and distance respectively. Moreover, they provide quality gu...
Traditionally, biomolecular systems have been studied in ensemble. While much can be determined with ensemble measurements, scientific and technological interest is rapidly moving...
In this work, we are concerned with the detection of multiple objects in an image. We demonstrate that typically applied objectives have the structure of a random field model, but...
We discuss and analyze the problem of finding a distribution that minimizes the relative entropy to a prior distribution while satisfying max-norm constraints with respect to an ...
Abstract. User preferences are a fundamental ingredient of personalized database applications, in particular those in which the user context plays a key role. Given a set of prefer...
