In the current state-of-the-art in multimedia content analysis (MCA), the fundamental techniques are typically derived from core pattern recognition and computer vision algorithms...
Efficient query processing in P2P-based Web integration systems poses a variety of challenges resulting from the strict decentralization and limited knowledge. As a special probl...
This work describes a system that allocates end-to-end bandwidth, in a switched meshed communications network. The solution makes use of market-based software agents that compete ...
Reinforcement learning in real-world domains suffers from three curses of dimensionality: explosions in state and action spaces, and high stochasticity. We present approaches that ...
