This paper discusses conditions under which some of the “higher level” mental concepts applicable to human beings might also be applicable to artificial agents. The key idea ...
In this paper, we propose a Quantified Distributed Constraint Optimization problem (QDCOP) that extends the framework of Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOPs). DCOP...
Increased complexity of simulation models and the related modeling needs for global supply chains have necessitated the execution of simulations on multiple processors. While dist...
Model-based image interpretation extracts high-level information from images using a priori knowledge about the object of interest. The computational challenge in model fitting is...
Abstract. An important task in many scientific and engineering disciplines is to set up experiments with the goal of finding the best instances (substances, compositions, designs) ...
