—Stochastic relaxation aims at finding the minimum of a fitness function by identifying a proper sequence of distributions, in a given model, that minimize the expected value o...
In this article we consider the issue of optimal control in collaborative multi-agent systems with stochastic dynamics. The agents have a joint task in which they have to reach a ...
Most algorithms for computing diagnoses within a modelbased diagnosis framework are deterministic. Such algorithms guarantee soundness and completeness, but are NPhard. To overcom...

We present SpeedBoost, a natural extension of functional gradient descent, for learning anytime predictors, which automatically trade computation time for predictive accuracy by s...
Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...
